In these days after the Ascension, the Liturgy calls us to turn and find our hope in God. Even though he is unseen, he is still very much with us. He may be in the heaven of our hopes, but he also walks among us. We are sustained by the hope that we will join him one day in the place he is preparing for us. The world may very well scatter us and give us trouble; Jesus said as much. But we can take courage in the fact that Jesus has overcome the world and has not abandoned us.
