A Palm Sunday Praise

...When they brought the colt to Jesus and threw their cloaks over it, he sat on it. Many people spread their cloaks on the road, while others spread branches they had cut in the fields. Those who went ahead and those who followed shouted, “Hosanna!” “Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!” “Blessed is the coming kingdom of our father David!” “Hosanna in the highest heaven!” Jesus entered Jerusalem and went into the temple courts. He looked around at everything, but since it was already late, he went out to Bethany with the Twelve...
Mark Ch 11 7-11


On the day that You came into Jersusalem,
Humble and riding on a donkey,
You received the praises of the people,
They sought you out for peace and salvation,
But in your heart, you knew,
That in the end, most of these same people
Who praised your name, would never surrender
Their hearts to you, would never taste of your
Holy peace and receive Your salvation.

For those who believed in You,
They were celebrating, because they thought
You would be victorious, that You would establish
Your rule at that moment, but very soon they would
Realize that You had a different Kingdom in mind.

In your heart You weeped for the lost sheep of Israel,
And despite everything they would soon do to you.
You still gave Your heart, mind, body and soul,
So that some would be saved. How I wish that
I could have been there to see it, My Father,
My friend, My Savior, as you strolled into
The city gates of your city and home, Jerusalem.

I would have shouted, "Hosanna! Blessed Is He Who Comes In The Name Of The Lord!"

I pray for peace to all my brothers and sisters in Christ waiting for the Coming of Our King - Hallelujah!
