What an exciting week this is for us Christians. Just think, this day some two thousandish years back Jesus began his final walk to the cross.....
12The next day a vast crowd of those who had come to the Passover Feast heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem.
13So they took branches of palm trees and went out to meet Him. And as they went, they kept shouting, Hosanna! Blessed is He and praise to Him Who comes in the name of the Lord, even the King of Israel!
14And Jesus, having found a young donkey, rode upon it, [just] as it is written in the Scriptures,
15Do not fear, O Daughter of Zion! Look! Your King is coming, sitting on a donkey's colt!
16His disciples did not understand and could not comprehend the meaning of these things at first; but when Jesus was glorified and exalted, they remembered that these things had been written about Him and had been done to Him. John 12: 12-16!
While Jesus was fully aware that he would be welcomed into the city with shouts of Praise he was also fully aware that in only a few short days those shouts of Hosanna! would turn to shouts of "Crucify Him" and yet he walked in anyway! Thank you Jesus.
