SEVENTH SUNDAY OF EASTER
THE ASCENSION*
Jesus' ascension to Heaven depicted by John Singleton Copley in Ascension (1775). [PD-US] |
The eleven disciples went
to Galilee,
to the mountain to which Jesus had ordered them.
When they saw him, they worshiped, but they
doubted.
Then Jesus approached and said to them,
“All power in heaven and on earth has been given
to me.
Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations,
baptizing them in the name of the Father,
and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit,
teaching them to observe all that I have commanded
you.
And behold, I am with you always, until the end of
the age.”
Matthew
28:16-20
The Seekerville bloggers have been praying for YOU and for our entire blog community. If you have any special intentions that need additional coverage, leave a request for prayer in the comment section below.
Please pray for our country and for an end to the problems that plague us at this current time, such as the increased cost of fuel and food and the rise in crime. Please pray for world peace, for the protection of our military, law enforcement officers and border agents.
God bless you and keep you safe.
May the Lord bless all of us throughout this Easter Season with a new appreciation of His mercy and love.
*The Ascension was Thursday, May 18, but many churches observe the special day on this Sunday.
