CONTINUALLY PRAISING GOD In both the first reading and the Gospel we are told about Christ’s glorious ascension into heaven.
Paul’s letter to the Ephesians reminds us that Christ has been seated at God’s right hand in heaven, above every choir of angels. There might be a temptation to stay at an awed distance from Jesus Christ. However, the tone of today’s readings is far from that temptation. The tone is exultant and the message is urgent. We are to be his witnesses, and the Gospel describes the first witnesses this way: “[W]ith great joy . . . they were continually in the temple praising God” (Luke 24:53).
How can we continually praise God? The answer can be found in the second reading, in which Paul prays that God will give us a “Spirit of wisdom and revelation” in order to know Christ clearly (Ephesians 1:17). We cannot stand at a distance. We are to be enlightened and empowered. TODAY’S READINGS
First Reading Jesus tells the disciples that they will be witnesses to the ends of the earth (Acts 1:1-11). Psalm God mounts his throne to shouts of joy: a blare of trumpets for the Lord (Psalm 47). Second Reading God seated Jesus at his right hand in the heavens (Ephesians 1:17-23) or Hebrews 9:24-28; 10:19-23. Gospel As Jesus blessed his disciples he parted from them and was taken up to heaven (Luke 24:46-53). Reading I The man said, “This one is bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; this one shall be called ‘woman’” (Genisis 2:18-24). Psalm May the Lord bless us all the days of our lives (Psalm 128). Reading II He who consecrates and those who are being consecrated all have one origin (Hebrews 2:9-11) Gospel Whoever does not accept the kingdom of God like a child shall not enter it (Mark 10:2-16 [2-12]).
