MEDITATION
MAY 2012
Sunday 6th May ~ Saturday 2nd June
-
We continue the Easter Season with some the beautiful discourses by Jesus as he prepares his disciples for his departure. On May 6th, the 5th Sunday of Easter, Jesus says “I am the true vine and my Father is the Vine keeper”. The 6th Sunday of Easter is based on the commandment to “love one another”.
Then follows “the Ascension” prior to which Jesus issues the instruction “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation”.
Finally we have the glorious celebration of Pentecost. There is a certain excitement about our renewal in the Holy Spirit. Jesus says “the Spirit will receive from me what he will make known to you”.
May the Easter season end on a high note for you and may you feel refreshed as we continue our journey.
