Thought for Ascension Thursday May 29


God mounts his throne to shouts of joy: a blare of trumpets for the Lord.
All you peoples, clap your hands,
shout to God with cries of gladness,
For the LORD, the Most High, the awesome,
is the great king over all the earth.
God mounts his throne to shouts of joy: a blare of trumpets for the Lord.

 
Acts 1: 1 – 11  But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, throughout Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”  When he had said this, as they were looking on, he was lifted up, and a cloud took him from their sight.

How do you think the Apostles felt as Jesus left them?  Do you think it was harder for the Apostles to witness the Crucifixion or the Ascension?

Action:  Rise above whatever is swirling around your community and do something good today.
