Del Evangelio de san Marcos escuchamos las últimas palabras que Jesús les di- rigió a sus discípulos momentos antes de ascender a los cielos. Fueron palabras con un encargo, no menos real para nosotros que para los discípulos de entonces. Jesús nos encarga: “Vayan por todo el mundo y prediquen el Evangelio a toda criatura”. Para la gran mayoría de nosotros, esto significa que proclamamos el Evangelio con el testimo- nio de nuestra vida diaria. Cuando tratamos a otros con dignidad y respeto, ayudamos a los menos afortunados que nosotros, actuamos corresponsablemente con los muchos dones que hemos recibido, y nos reunimos como familia de Dios para adorar y alabar al Padre –todas estas son señales de que el Evangelio ha echado raíces en nuestras vidas.

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE Después de los eventos del Viernes Santo los discípulos se encerraron en el Cenáculo porque tenían mucho miedo. Estaban precisamente ahí, donde habían celebrado la Última Cena con Jesús. Según los relatos que nos pre- sentan los evangelios, Jesús se les aparecería en ese mismo lugar. De hecho, cuarenta días después de su muerte, Jesús ascendió al cielo. Luego de que Jesús ascendiera al cielo, los discípulos se quedaron atónitos viendo hacia arriba. El famoso “Himno a la alegría” nos invita a ver “más allá de las estrellas”. Sin embargo, los ángeles le dicen a los seguidores de Cristo que dejen de ver las nubes y se pongan a trabajar (Hechos 1:11). Al regresar a su Padre, Jesucristo envió su Espíritu sobre la comunidad cristiana primitiva haciéndolos testigos de su resurrección. De esta manera dieron inicio a la canción que dice: “Que esperan un nuevo día”, y esperando van cantado el mensaje de aquel que estando en el cielo puede vivir en el corazón de los que le aman.
