” The more intimacy there is in a relationship, the less it can be explained.” (Gillick SJ, 2011). The Gospel of Matthew from the Roman Catholic Lectionary for today presents Jesus discussion on knowing the Divine through relationship with the Father and the Son. The Evangelist writes that the relationship is revealed to the infants. Gillick suggests that the heart is the path through which the love of the intimate communion with God is experienced. Paul tells the Romans that we are beings of the Spirit. We live and give the praise described by the psalmist to God through our indwelling Spirit. The grace, mercy and slowness to anger of God is the steadfast love that upholds those who are falling and those who are bowed down. Where will the people of God celebrate the coming of the Great Ruler of peace prophesised by Zechariah? The temple that is our being is the home for praise of God.
