More Wisdom from Fr. Dave Pivonka

God is triune. Jesus shows himself and reveals himself to us, but there’s also something more than that: there’s the God who reveals himself to us as Father, Jesus, but also the Holy Spirit. The disciples, who had every advantage of seeing all of these amazing things and being with Jesus, still where we find them after his Death and Resurrection is in a locked room. I think that’s where a lot of people’s spiritual life is, in this locked room. The spiritual life was never supposed to be lived in a locked room. Scripture says that the doors were locked out of fear. I think that’s a lot of our experiences. We feel trapped and dry and stagnant and all these kinds of things and there has to be something more.
