Our first reading today presents us with a challenge that we face every day: the challenge to turn away from the world's expectations and, instead, follow God's expectations, to obey God's will rather than the impulses of humanity.
The apostles served as a beacon of courage in their unwavering commitment to Jesus' teachings. They stood their ground even when their safety and lives were at stake, a testament to their unyielding faith.
Our challenge, too, is to stand firm in our obedience to God and proclaim the truth of God's love and our redemption in Christ, even when the world doesn't want to hear it.
Let us pray that we will have the same courage as the Apostles and keep our eyes fixed firmly on heaven.
