The Sunday after Ascension sits in a beautiful, almost breathless space in the Church calendar. Jesus has ascended, the disciples have watched Him go, and now they wait — not in despair, but in expectant hope.
It’s a reminder that faith often lives in the “in-between” moments. We stand between what God has already done and what He has yet to reveal. Like the disciples, we are called to wait with prayerful hearts, trusting that the promised Spirit will come, bringing courage, clarity, and power for the journey ahead.
This week, perhaps the invitation is to embrace the pause — to rest in God’s timing, to listen more deeply, and to prepare our hearts for the fresh work He is about to do.
“Those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength.” (Isaiah 40:31)
