Palm Sunday
Got this palm leaf from church today… “Hosanna in the Highest” is what the crowd cried as Jesus came into view, riding on a donkey treading over garments and palm branches laid on the ground before Him.
The pastor at church today talked about how the people in that crowd could not have known the magnitude of who Christ was in that moment. They were excited, stirred in their hearts, and energized to proclaim the arrival of Jesus.
But without the cross, the crucifixion, the death and resurrection, and ascension into heaven – and all the fulfilled promises that came with Easter – the people could not have grasped all that much of what Jesus was about.
As Easter imminently approaches, it’s a good time to ponder – who is Jesus, really? Who is the Jesus of the Bible? And who do we know Him to be in our lives?
