Today we celebrate the fulfillment of what is written in the scriptures. Jesus suffered, died, rose, and ascended into heaven. The disciples became witnesses to this event and they carried out the great commission of the Lord. Our faith is based on the faith, testimony, teachings, and experience of those disciples. We have inherited the apostolic faith. The Holy Spirit who dwelt in the apostles empowers us, to live out our calling. When we gather together as the body of Christ, we are united with him as the head of this mystical body. When we are aware of this reality, our communities will become more effective like the first Christian community. The Lord is seated at the right-hand of the Father, interceding for us. Empowered by the Holy Spirit, clothed in the righteousness and holiness of our Lord, we have the power and authority to spread the Gospel. We are called to witness to Jesus our Lord, wherever we are placed in life. How do we respond to this call?

PRAYER: Abba Father, empower us to respond to our calling. Amen.
