Ascension of the Lord, Thursday, 18-05-2023

Acts 1:1-11 / Ephesians 1:17-23 / Matthew 28:16-20  

To be able to remember is a wonderful aspect of our lives.

We may have varying memory capabilities, but we will remember what is deeply important to us. 

And we will subconsciously recall those important memories every now and then, and those who listen to us would have lost count about how many times they have heard it. 

Today as we celebrate the feast of the Ascension, we remember a few important things. 

We remember that Jesus said He would send us the Holy Spirit. 

We remember that the angels told the disciples that Jesus will come back again. 

We remember that Jesus told us to go and make disciples of all the nations. 

And we remember that Jesus promised that He will be with us until the end of time. 

Yes, today we remember and we recall all that. 

We not only remember and recall, we also need to repeat it often, so that we will not forget how to live our lives as disciples of Jesus.
