Devotion – Acts 1:9-11
Found this interesting…straight from my devotional journal…
Acts 1:9-11
“And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight. And while they looked steadfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel; which also said, you men of Galilee, why stand you gazing up into heaven? This same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as you have seen him go into heaven.”
Fewer places intrigue us as much as Heaven does. It’s magical. It’s mysterious. It’s frightening. Heaven is clothed in many different ways, and about the only thing we do know for sure about Heaven is that it’s up. The consistency in these three scriptures rings that absolute truth.
