In 2 Corinthians 13:11, Paul says, βBrothers and sisters, rejoice! Strive for full restoration, encourage one another, be of one mind, live in peace. And the God of love and peace will be with you.β Itβs simple, direct and still one of the most needed reminders the church could hear today. π
But you can't live out verse 11 without verse 14."May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.β β¨
That's the Trinity. And yes, it's a mystery. Every time we try to fully explain it, we risk getting it wrong. But that's not a reason to avoid it. That's a reason to lean into it. Our ability to be the church β to encourage, to pursue peace, to love one another well β isn't just a decision we make. It's the overflow of what God the Father, Jesus the Son, and the Holy Spirit are doing in us and through us.
This week, remember you can't be the church on your own strength. Lean on the Trinity.
