Resurrection-Easter Sunday is behind us. Do we go back to the “new norm?” For 40 days following His resurrection, Jesus was active in reassuring His disciples, restoring Simon Peter, and promising the coming of the Holy Spirit. Jesus tells them the return is in the Father’s hands and gives us the great commission. The two men in white, following His ascension, assure them of Jesus’ return in the air. We are now on a time line between His ascension and His return. I don’t know exact time, but it’s closer than yesterday. The major question? Are we prepared? Do we have “oil in our lamps!” Father, with John in the Revelation in the last verse, "even so come, Lord Jesus." Amen, church, amen.
