Ascension Day

Yesterday was Ascension Day. Christ's ascension means the Spirit was able to come and it also means the next event in God's timetable of redemptive events is the return of the LORD. What a glorious hope!

 The golden gates are lifted up, the doors are opened wide;

The King of Glory is gone in unto his Father’s side.

That where thou art, at God’s right hand, our hope, our love may be:

Dwell Thou in us, that we may dwell forevermore in Thee.
