Happy Blessed Trinity Sunday-Sunday Wisdom!

Sunday Wisdom /

Praise God for our baptism in the Triune God! It is true we are all baptized in the Trinity and in doing so we not only commit ourselves to Jesus , but we allow Him to wash away our sins. 

The sign of the cross can be a simple prayer. When my children were little and when I taught school, I thought it was an important reminder to say this simple prayer whenever we make the sign of the cross.

In the name of the Father, who created me…..and of the Son, who saved me…..and in the Holy Spirit who guides me.

Today on Trinity Sunday, let the sign of the Cross and this outward sign of God’s love fill you with hope. As an adopted child of God, you are a member of the body of Christ and you are loved! You are a temple of the Holy Spirit, so trust in His love and guidance.

Thanks for stopping by!
Until next time, be blessed, Renae
