Hi,
I debated this a long while - I actually went one further and got led into Islam before finding my way back - over this issue
I think I've finally sorted it in my own head though
The trinity could be like a small company (imagine plumbers) - only 3 employees each with their own name and personality but each belonging to the same company - they can talk to one another and they can all be out on jobs at once but either way they always represent the company. One is good at problem solving so appears the more senior and even the others call him if they can't figure out the issue, the other is good at explaining the issue to the customer (or one who called in a fault) and so is often sent out for bigger, more complex jobs and the last is good at checking their isn't another problem that will result in a system failure as soon as they leave in the van - one company/entity with 3 differently skilled persons....
if you think about it this way then it makes perfect sense that the Son would call on the Father to help solve issues, and that they would send out the spirit to ensure that no future problems arise.
