Have you ever found yourself gazing up at the clouds? Looking at the sky, waiting for something.
The disciples were told by the two men in white; we assume Elijah and Moses,
“Men of Galilee, why do you stand and look up to heaven?”
John 14:23-29
Acts 1: 1-11
Not an unreasonable thing to do, I would have thought if someone had been standing with you and then Lo and Behold ! There he is, carried up in a cloud.
Well I would definitely be standing there even today looking upwards, amazing!
It’s rather like when you have been to the theatre and it has been an amazing performance , a ballet, musical opera, something spectacular. The curtain goes back and forth at the end.You would like to stay there and maybe the curtain will pull back one more time and you will see the ballerina again.
Keep gazing though, because this time Jesus was going into heaven. But he did leave with the disciples the message that the Holy Spirit would come among them.
In other words look beyond the possible and into the vision. What we can do if we really have inspiration, being inspired, spirit given, looking heavenwards.
Tocare el cielo con ditto. Touch the sky with your finger tips.
Rev’d Sue Martin
