The Trinity, the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit is not so hard to understand. I can be a sister, mother, and daughter, and I have a spirit. God can be a Father, Son, and have a Spirit as well. Get it?
Reminds me of a story I heard about about two English theologians back in the 19th century who were taking a walk together down a country lane. They were talking about how to explain theological doctrine such as the Trinity, and right at that moment a carriage rolled that had three men seated in it. "See there!" one of the theologians said, "there is a fine exemplification of the Trinity!" And the other theologian chuckled and said, "That is no exemplification at all. Instead you should have shown me one man in three carriages!"
I'm a woman who loves God a lot and wants to make the world a better place. I love my friends and family and continue to press on toward making the good things in my heart happen - I'd like to have made more progress. It is a daily thing. I love to live life and have fun in ways that add value to my life and others. IE Playing Rock Band, having deep conversations that add good value to people's lives, telling jokes and funny stories, boating, going to great concerts, traveling,reading, writing,visiting with young people-they have the coolest stories, going to live theater, mission trips, various Holy Spirit adventures, and more...
