## Resource

A meditation on the transition from the joy of the Resurrection to the reality of Christ's impending Ascension. It explores the spiritual necessity of active works and the vigilance required to maintain grace after the Easter mystery.

## Highlights
- Main idea: The end of the Easter season serves as a preparation for the separation of Christ from His disciples
- Practical takeaway: True faith requires active works; being a mere hearer of the word leads to spiritual deception
- Failure mode: Allowing the distractions of the world to consume the time and thoughts intended for the grace of the Resurrection
- Spiritual lesson: Grace provides the power to fight against sin, but the victory is not yet finalized as the battle continues
- Theological principle: The law of prayer and the necessity of maintaining a life of constancy to perfect the work of redemption
