The Ascension

FOOTPRINT OF JESUS AT THE CHURCH OF ASCENSION NEAR THE SUMMIT OF MOUNT OF OLIVES IN JERUSALEM

 

In one corner of the octagonal building topped with a dome, now part of a mosque compound, is a stone.  

Imprinted in the stone is the worn outline of a footprint - Jesus' right foot.

This is ascribed to be the place of Jesus' ascension

Jesus raised his eyes to heaven and said, "Father, the hour has come.  Give glory to your son, so that your son may glorify you, just as you gave him authority over all people, so that your son may give eternal life to all you gave him.  Now this is eternal life, that they should know you, the only true God, and the one whom you sent, Jesus Christ."  
- John 17:1-3

The Ascension of the Lord

Jesus became part of this world.  Because of his life, death and resurrection, the world was transformed to become a full-bodied life with the Lord and forever part of the reign of God.  Hope is no longer a temporary blessing.  The human life has blossomed into something far beyond greater.

Alleluia!

Hearts to heaven and voices raise;

Sing to God a hymn of gladness,

Sing to God a hymn of praise.

He who on the cross as Savior

For the world's salvation bled,

Jesus Christ, the King of Glory,

Now is risen from the dead.

Now the iron bars are broken,

Christ from death to life is born,

Glorious life, and life immortal,

On this resurrection morn;

Christ has truimphed and we conquer

By his mighty enterprise,

We with him to life eternal

By his resurrection rise.

Glory be to God on high;

Alleluia to the savior,

Who has won the victory;

Alleluia to the Spirit,

Font of love and sanctity;

Alelluia! Alleluia!

To the Triune Majesty.

That's God

 CONVERSATION WITH GOD

God, grant me the serenity

to accept the people I cannot change,

which is pretty much everyone,

since I'm clearly not you, God.

At least not the last time I checked.

And while you're at it, God,

please give me the courage

to change what I need to change about myself,

which is frankly a lot, since, once again,

I'm not you, which means I'm not perfect.

It's better for me to focus on changing myself

than to worry about changing other people,

who, as you'll no doubt remember me saying,

I can't change anyway.

Finally, give me the wisdom to shut up

whenever I think that I'm clearly smarter

than everyone else in the room,

that no one knows what they're talking about except me,

or that I alone have all the answers.

Basically, God,

grant me the wisdom

to remember that I'm

not you.

-  Fr. James Martin, S.J.

Our Lady of Fatima Day May13

CATHOLIC CALENDAR   MAY 13  OUR LADY OF FATIMA DAY

FOR YOUR EYES ONLY 

AS WE OPEN OUR EYES TO THE BEAUTIES OF CREATION, we can already feel the attentive gaze of our loving mother.  As the first stirring of our souls, our Heavenly Mother sets her gaze upon us.  The Mother we all share with our Creator looks at us with a pure, sacred, royal, yet maternal gaze.

It is no wonder, then, that she renews her solicitude for her children when they stray in despair and do not return her gaze.  Like a mother who is unwelcome in her own child's home, she leaves a sign, a message, a remembrance, and a maternal promise: "I will never forsake you."

She says: "Look deep into my eyes and let me look into yours."  In a striking way, this picture seem to reflect the very gaze of Our Lady, the gaze that seeks to convert and to save.  It is a gentle reminder of her promise at Fatima: "In the end, my Immaculate Heart will triumph."

PRAYER OF ST. FRANCIS

Giovanni Francesco di Bernardone  1181/1182-October 3, 1226

Make me a channel of your peace.

Where there is hatred, let me bring your love.

Where there is injury, your pardon Lord,

And where there's doubt, true faith in you.

Make me a channel of your peace.

Where there's despair in life, let me bring hope.

Where there is darkness only light,

And where there's sadness ever joy.

O Master, grant that I may never seek

So much to be consoled, as to console,

To be understood, as to understand,

To be loved as to love with all my soul.

Make me a channel of your peace.

It is in pardoning that we are pardoned.

In giving of ourselves that we receive,

And in dying that we're born to eternal life.
