Worthy are you, Lord our God

“Worthy are you, Lord our God, to receive glory and honor and power, for you created all things; because of your will they came to be and were created.” (Rev 4: 11)
With the Book of Revelation, we have the access to the Liturgy in Heaven. All the celestial liturgy is based on adoration of God, who is a Communion of Persons. Our God exists in Three Persons and invited us to be together with Him.

One of my favourite ways in which this is expressed is in the Vatican II Constitution Dei Verbum (No. 2) on the 18th of November 1965: “the invisible God out of the abundance of His love speaks to men as friends and lives among them, so that He may invite and take them into fellowship with Himself.” We were created by God’s love to be with Him Who is Creator and our Father; Who is the Son and our Redeemer, and Who is the Holy Spirit – the Giver of life.

“The Lord said: I think thoughts of peace and not of affliction. You will call upon me, and I will answer you, and I will lead back your captives from every place.” (Entrance Antiphon)
