Luke 24 The AscensionThis is the happy moment in Christianity.
Then Jesus led them to Bethany, and lifting his hands to heaven, he blessed them. While he was blessing them, he left them and was taken up to heaven. So they worshiped him and then returned to Jerusalem filled with great joy. And they spent all of their time in the Temple, praising God.
Reading the New Testament and in our Christian Life, one gets the feeling of a long struggle, persecution, trials, ridicule, sacrifice, bearing one's cross. A long journey. A race. A battle. Wanting this to be over.
But this is the Happy Moment. Savor it.
