Thankfully, when Paul describes the ascension of our Savior, the words “far above” don’t mean “far away.” If that were true then Jesus would be distant from our day-to-day lives, our concerns and what we experience. And even two or three, gathered together in His name, and standing on each other’s shoulders, wouldn’t be able to reach up to Him. However, in worship, we’re reminded that it’s Jesus who comes to us. He comes to bless us and to forgive, fortify and feed us. He comes to us in the word, read and proclaimed to us by our pastor. And He comes to us in the Lord’s Supper.
