From King to Crucification
Palm Sunday, a day you and I remember "Christ's Triumphant Entry" just a week before He would be betrayed, wrongfully accused and handed over to be beaten and crucified.
How is it we can forget so quickly?
How is it that they lost sight of Jesus, they shouted "Hosanna!" praise to their Lord, their King of Kings, Lord of Lords, but one week later they would forget who He is, they would forget the miracles, the mercy, the grace, the magnificence of the Christ?
They may have forgotten, but Jesus would not forget, His plan was bigger than their/our vision, He always knew He would be the sacrifice for many, that He way pay the ultimate price that would bring freedom for all men.
We still have a reason to shout: HOSANNA! HOSANNA!
The next day a great multitude that had come to the feast, when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem, 13 took branches of palm trees and went out to meet Him, and cried out:
“Hosanna!
Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!’
The King of Israel!”
Then Jesus, when He had found a young donkey, sat on it; as it is written:
15 Fear not, daughter of Zion;
Behold, your King is coming,
Sitting on a donkey’s colt.”
~John 12:12-15
