Ascension Day

Today commemorates the day that Jesus rose up to heaven (see Acts 1) ... and for the first time in many years I plan to go to church tonight.... our church hasn't had a service for as long as I've been a member, but our new minister, Brian, has instituted one for tonight.

Our minister raised a very interesting point on Sunday.... who gave us Ascension Day? God of course... before the government made it a public holiday and then subsequently took it away again.... so that doesn't mean that we CAN'T celebrate.

Will report back tomorrow (hopefully) on how it went.

God be with you today and in to the future.... I worship the risen Saviour.

Indeed we do serve a Risen Saviour!!!!!! Yes, they can take it away, but we still can rejoice in Him!!!!!!
