Today's Scripture
Luke 24:50-53
Then Jesus led them to Bethany, and lifting his hands to heaven, he blessed them. While he was blessing them, he left them and was taken up to heaven. So they worshiped him and then returned to Jerusalem filled with great joy. And they spent all of their time in the Temple, praising God.
As the disciples stood and watched, Jesus began rising into the air, and soon He disappeared into Heaven. Seeing Jesus leave must have been frightening, but the disciples knew that Jesus would keep His promise to send the Holy Spirit to be with them. This same Jesus, who lived with the disciples, who died and was buried, and rose from the dead, loves us and promises to be with us always ! We can get to know Him better by studying the Scriptures, praying, and allowing the Holy Spirit to make us more like Jesus, our Risen Savior !!
Lord Jesus we are so in Awe of You. Father, help us to keep this sense of wonder and awe as we leave the Easter season. May we daily study Your Word and pray to You.May we start to become more and more like Jesus Christ, our Risen, Wonderful, Savior. In Jesus' Name we pray, Amen..
God bless you
Love in Him,
