I want to imagine that the Holy Trinity is the closest thing to a kiss.
The Father would be the purest lips from which that feeling would be born. The Son would be that moment when those divine lips leave their mark on the mortal creature. The Holy Spirit would be the one to instill in the chosen one that feeling born of God when he kisses. But the Three would be a single Kiss in which the soul feels that Someone watches over it (Father), that Someone has taken it into his arms (Son) and that Someone has made it feel loved (Holy Spirit); that is, One God and Trinity.
The Holy Trinity is a mystery that encompasses and gives meaning to all those mysteries we palpate in the middle of our life: death, pain, our destiny,... In Trinitarian immensity, God reveals Himself in pure state and offers mortals the infinite Mercy of a Father, the eternal Commitment of the Son and the immortal Love of the Holy Spirit.
Is it not enough, between lovers, a silence or a look to express everything that encompasses your heart? For this is how a soul feels when God kisses it, that is, when the Father creates it, the Son embraces it and the Spirit comforts it.
The Holy Trinity is that: the three and inseparable ways of love that God has; three ways, but ONE LOVE.
