ASLC Devotions -- Thursday

Acts 1:11 They said, ‘Men of Galilee, why do you stand looking up towards heaven? This Jesus, who has been taken up from you into heaven, will come in the same way as you saw him go into heaven.’

Today is Ascension Day, the day we mark the end of Jesus' earthly presence. Remember to join us for a new and experimental worship experience in the Gathering Space tonight at 6:30. We'll combine a dinner and worship all throughout, being in the Gathering Space for the whole event. It'll be a great time.

But after Jesus ascended into heaven and his disciples and followers sat gawking up after him into the clouds, these angels had a few parting words. "Why do you stand looking up towards heaven?" I love that line.  What the heck are you looking for up in the clouds? Get your head out of the clouds and get to being a disciple. Look around you. Look down. Look around and see all that God has for you to do. Get your head out of the clouds. Good advice.

In Christ,
Pastor Seth
