Acts 1
Lynell McCrary
So often I find myself driving along the road, looking into the sky to try and predict the weather for the day. I wonder if the weather report that I heard will be accurate and the timing of any predicted weather changes.
In Acts 1:9-11, I am reminded of a different purpose for looking intently into the sky. I can only imagine the awe and wonder on the men’s faces as they watched Jesus ascend into the sky and become hidden from sight.
In our familiarity with this recorded story in Acts, we can easily assume that Christ is not coming back today. How quickly would we change our priorities for the day, if we knew that it was our last day before the rapture?
The next time that you look into the sky, view it as if you expect to see His return. Would you change your priorities for the day?
