Psalm 111



Great are the works of the Lord,
studied by all who delight in them.
Full of honour and majesty is his work,
and his righteousness endures for ever.
He has gained renown by his wonderful deeds;
the Lord is gracious and merciful...
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom;
all those who practise it have a good understanding.


Many churches celebrate today as Trinity Sunday.

I am not much of a Trinitarian, but slowly over the years I have come to appreciate the doctrine as positively articulating the mystery of God.

I experience the active influence of an eternal, cosmos creating, still creating, source of fundamental and ultimate reality.

I perceive that God is one, but a complex singularity far beyond my accurate comprehension or specific explanation.

Trying to make sense of even three moving parts is sufficiently complicated to suggest the fullness of God.

Psalm 111
