Bible meditation
Spirit 6:1
Days without food
Before ascending to the Father,
Jesus said to his disciples:
"Go . . .to all peoples everywhere
and make them my disciples...
And I will be with you always."
Matthew 28:18-20
A woman saw a little girl in the street.
The child was poorly dressed,
ill-nourished, and playing in the gutter
with filthy trash.

The woman became angry
and said to God,
"Why do you let a thing like that
happen in the world you created?
Why don't you do something about it?
God replied: "I did do something about it;
I created you."
____________
That story invites me to ask: How might
I respond better to Jesus' invitation
to help him transform our world into
the kind of place God created it to be?"
The Ascension of Christ
is his liberation from all restrictions
of time and space.
t does not represent his removal
from earth, but his constant presence
everywhere on earth.
William Temple
