Of this lovely month of April 2022.

Luke 24:50 — a very special verse to me. 

50 And He led them out as far as Bethany, and He lifted up His hands and blessed them. 
51 While He was blessing them, He parted from them and was carried up into heaven. 
52 And they, after worshiping Him, returned to Jerusalem with great joy, 
53 and were continually in the temple praising God. source 

Acts 1: 9 After saying this, he was taken up before their eyes; and a cloud hid him from their sight.
10 As they were staring into the sky after him, suddenly they saw two men dressed in white standing next to them.
11 The men said, “You Galileans! Why are you standing, staring into space? This Yeshua, who has been taken away from you into heaven, will come back to you in just the same way as you saw him go into heaven.”

Why am I sharing this with you?
Read it again. 

JESUS is coming back!!
Count on it! 

And what are we to do until then ~ ~ ~ 52 And they, after worshiping Him, returned to Jerusalem with great joy, 
53 and were continually in the temple praising God.

Good Morning or evening as the case may be; I have a portion of Scripture for you to read. 
It’s instructive. 
It’s penned by Paul to the people of Philippi, yet not just any people of Philippi but brothers and sisters he so dearly loved.
Brothers and sisters that he confidently saw the LORD working in them and he encouraged them to continue so and to be assured that The LORD would continue to work in them until the Day of the LORD’s return for them. (verse 6 of Philippians 1)

I hope you will read all of it but if you are rushing to get on with tasks clamoring for your attention — give yourself to these few. 

27 Above all, you must live as citizens of heaven, conducting yourselves in a manner worthy of the Good News about Christ. Then, whether I come and see you again or only hear about you, I will know that you are standing together with one spirit and one purpose, fighting together for the faith, which is the Good News. 
28 Don’t be intimidated in any way by your enemies. This will be a sign to them that they are going to be destroyed, but that you are going to be saved, even by God himself. 
29 For you have been given not only the privilege of trusting in Christ but also the privilege of suffering for him. 
30 We are in this struggle together. You have seen my struggle in the past, and you know that I am still in the midst of it.
