I saw rays of light streaming from the Sacred Host: reminders of Christ's Divinity and of the origin of the "Radiant Light" image.
The Blessed Trinity can be seen as a Triple Light with Christ the God-man at the centre.

Truly, Christ our God is Present before us, Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity: Present in glory at every Mass to pray to the Father on our behalf. He is the Living Bread, come down from Heaven, for the life of our souls. On the feast of 'The Body and Blood of Christ', we pay Him special honour.
The Godhead was shown as being like the blazing fire at the very entrance to eternal life, at the 'door' to glory.
Love seized me, and showed me that He - our God - had 'sheltered' His own people from the clear sight of His glory.
God is like a mighty fire of love. Aware of human frailty, He revealed Himself to His people little by little, lest He destroy them by His glory.
Christ rose from the tomb in glory at Easter, transformed, as if in a blazing fire of charity, as the Holy Spirit delivered him from death's bondage.

Before the tabernacle, we are in the Presence of the living God, whose Triune glory fills the Church. To be close to Christ in the tabernacle is to be close to the living God Whose glory fills the church.
Whoever pauses in His work, to pray - alone or in shared prayer - can glance towards Heaven, where Christ reigns with the Saints in glory.

If we are one with Christ in the Mass in the living memorial of the Sacrifice of the Cross, we are one with Christ in His Eternal self-offering in the inner life of the Blessed Trinity. That is why the Holy Eucharist is a pledge of future glory as well as a sacrifice for sin. To belong to Christ and to receive Him in Holy Communion is a foretaste of the union and communion that we can enjoy for all Eternity if we remains faithful.

The Blessed Trinity is alive in Eternity, like a triple ring of light, glory, perpetual delight and exaltation.
The Christ we meet in Holy Communion is as if at the 'doorway' of three areas. He is the point at which His friends of earth, Purgatory and Heaven meet. We on earth are close to Him, but not yet wholly secure; the Holy Souls are safe forever, but cannot yet 'hold' Him; the Saints share His glory, and can never lose Him.
In the cathedral, at an ordination Mass, the Father revealed something of His majesty and glory, amidst the saints.
