                            Gospel Meditation: God’s Inner Life
                               By: Fr. Jarrod Waugh, CSC, Pastor
I believe that creation itself points towards there being a Creator. The fact that the universe has laws of physics, that those laws can be described and even predicted using mathematics, that those laws seem to be consistent across the visible universe, all of things, among many others, seem to me to point to there being a purpose for all of this. It isn’t random chance and if there is a direction and a purpose in creation then that implies there is Someone with that purpose in mind. So I fall squarely in the camp that even without prophets or mystics or God coming into creation Himself, intelligent beings could have deduced that they lived in a creation that has a Creator.

But it also seems to me that there are many aspects of God that we could NOT deduce just from studying creation, and yet these are some of the beliefs about God that most of us hold most dear. Could you know that God loves you from creation? Existing seems like a gift, so being given existence in the fist place could possibly be understood as a loving act, but I tend to think that you end up more with a distant, “watch-maker” God if creation is the only source of evidence for what God is like.

I doubt that we would have figured out that God is Triune just from the order of creation, and the witness of our fellow faithful theists who practice Judaism and Islam (among many others) indicates to me that the Holy Trinity is not necessarily an intuitive truth. And yet, we Christians know that God, in God’s own inner life, IS a Trinity of Persons—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. There is only the one true God, but the reality of God’s inner life is this communion of Persons who desires to invite US deeper into communion, both with God but also with one another.

When the eternal Son became Man, God made it clear that He wants the human race to be intimately united with Him. When Jesus, the Word Incarnate, ascended into Heaven he took with him his humanity. Since he is truly our brother and savior, this union of humanity with God has become a model, a path, a pilgrimage of all God’s children into God’s own life. The world tells us that God exists, but the Word tells us that God is love.

A PRAYER FOR PEACE BY POPE FRANCIS
 
Lord God of peace, hear our prayer!
We have tried so many times and over so many years
to resolve our conflicts by our own powers and by the force of our arms.
How many moments of hostility and darkness have we experienced?
how much blood has been shed?
how many lives have been shattered?
how many hopes have been buried?
But our efforts have been in vain.
 
Now, Lord, come to our aid!
Grant us peace, teach us peace;
guide our steps in the way of peace.
Open our eyes and our hearts,
and give us the courage to say: "Never again war!"; "With war everything is lost".
Instill in our hearts the courage to take concrete steps to achieve peace.
 
Lord, God of Abraham, God of the Prophets, God of Love,
you created us and you call us to live as brothers and sisters.
Give us the strength daily to be instruments of peace;
enable us to see everyone who crosses our path as our brother or sister.
Make us sensitive to the plea of our citizens
who entreat us to turn our weapons of war into implements of peace,
our trepidation into confident trust,
and our quarreling into forgiveness.
Keep alive within us the flame of hope,
so that with patience and perseverance
we may opt for dialogue and reconciliation.
In this way may peace triumph at last,
and may the words "division," "hatred," and "war"
be banished from the heart of every man and woman.
 
Lord, defuse the violence of our tongues and our hands.
Renew our hearts and minds,
so that the word which always brings us together will be "brother,"
and our way of life will always be that of: Shalom, Peace, Salaam!
Amen.
Sacred Heart Parishioner Sharon Marron describes her relationship with the Church.
