  ____________Easter antiphon on  the

  Mem Section  of Psalm 119_________

How sweet 

are your 

words to 

my taste! 

They are 

sweeter 

than honey 

to my mouth, 

hallelujah.

                  * Gregory of Nazianzus    

                             circa 330–3 89 

                        Bishop of Constantinople 

                         in present-day Turkey,

                             who wrote in 

                          The Holy  Trinty, 

                         

No sooner do I conceive of the one 

than I am illumined by the splendor 

ofthe three; no sooner do I distinguish 

them than I am carried back to the one…  

When I contemplate the three together, 

I see but one torch, and cannot divide

or measure out the undivided light.”

“Grace is given not

 to them who speak

 [their faith] but to 

those  who live their faith."
