Today is Ascension Day, the day Jesus Christ ascended into Heaven, 40 days after the Resurrection.
For 40 days Jesus remained on Earth to prove he had truly risen from the dead. He appeared to his disciples—teaching them, strengthening their faith, and confirming that He had truly conquered death. Especially to Thomas who had to literally touch Jesus's glorified body to believe it 😂
Then, in their presence, in the Mount of Olives, after one final blessing He ascended.
As He did a cloud took Him away from their sight, echoing the same divine signs seen in Exodus and at the Transfiguration.
This moment was not a departure in the sense of loss, Jesus wasn't going away. He was going to the Father to reign in glory. He was enthroned at the right hand of the Father.
The Ascension makes something crystal clear: Christ reigns now. He rules over Heaven and Earth.
But most importantly we must remember: He will come again. Just like the angels said "He will return.
Until that day, the mission continues: to live as witnesses of what has been seen and received.
To spread the Faith to all corners of the world and to live according to His teachings.
"Whoever has my commandments and keeps them loves me. Whoever loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love them and reveal myself to them" - John 14,21
