The Triumphal Palm Sunday Entry

THE TRIUMPHAL ENTRY

The two disciples did as Jesus commanded. They brought the donkey and the colt to him and threw their garments over the colt, and he sat on it.

Most of the crowd spread their garments on the road ahead of him, and others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road. Jesus was in the center of the procession, and the people all around him were shouting,

"Praise God for the Son of David! Blessings on the one who comes in the name of the Lord! Praise God in highest heaven!"

The entire city of Jerusalem was in an uproar as he entered. "Who is this?" they asked. And the crowds replied, "It's Jesus, the prophet from Nazareth in Galilee." -- Matthew 21:6-11

May we allow Him to enter our hearts triumphally and may we allow Him to abide there forever in the glory of who HE is and in the power of all He desires to be to us. May we invite Him to shine through us as we reflect His love , His truth, His power, His glory, His salvation to everyone whose life touches ours.

Like the moon that has no light, may we illumine the darkness around us because we reflect the Son as He shines forth from us.
