Ascension Day celebrates the end of Jesus' earthyly appearances, 40 days after Easter. 

Look up to heaven today. See Christ ascending to his Father and our Father. Say; Thank you, God, for creating me, through the incarnation of your beloved Son, the possibility and the assurance that if I do my part here, when death comes it will not be an enemy but a friend, to speed me on my way to the true, supernatural life which you have, in your love, planned and prepared for me. 

Jesus has entered heaven as our pioneer. He has blazed a trail. More, He is our representavtive; in a real way we are there with him. 

The thought of the Ascension should lift our lives above our petty, selfish concerns, to live with Jesus where he is now - in the glory of the Father!
