Sunday Reflection (May 24, 2020)

I do not deny the Lord’s Second Coming, but I do not pretend to know details only known to God the Father (Acts 1:1-11). The early disciples had limited restoration to a particular people, Israel. Jesus points out that his message of hope was not only for Israel but for the world and they were to be witnesses to it. This witness continues through Christ’s Church and by our proclamation each Sunday we bear witness to the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

We also bear witness to our proclamation by how we treat others. This does not mean we are perfect, but it does mean that our lives as Christians will be marked by compassion, concern, and service. Until Christ comes again, we are called to bear witness to God’s love revealed in Christ Jesus. May we do our part in making the world a better place today!
