May 24, 2020: Ascension of Our Lord
Video Reflection for May 24, 2020: Ascension of Our Lord
When Jesus departed from them physically, he ascended to the right hand of the Father in heaven. If they want to remain in relationship with Jesus, they have to go back to Jerusalem where they will be anointed by the Spirit of God--the same Spirit who raised Jesus from the dead. The Holy Spirit is the Father’s love for His Son and the love of His Son for the Father. Jesus’ promise to his disciples was that they would be anointed by this Love between the Father and the Son.
