I worship you Lord! You did not enter your holy city Jerusalem on the back of a war horse, but humbly and on a donkey. You knew that you were surrounded by murderers, yet you came in peace, and by your sacrifice you would utterly conquer death before the week had passed. You, oh Lord, are blessed and worthy of my praise. You have saved your people. I say, "You are my king!"... I long to live in the city where you sit on the throne! Establish your Kingdom, so that your people can live in peace. Jesus, I bow before you, and I will sing your praises until your Kingdom comes and is established, and forever after. ~ David Maddalena ~ Today is Palm Sunday, the sixth and last Sunday of Lent and beginning of Holy Week. It commemorates JESUS' triumphal entry into Jerusalem. "'Then Jesus, when He had found a young donkey, sat on it; as it is written: "Fear not, daughter of Zion; Behold, your King is coming, Sitting on a donkey's colt." "His disciples did not understand these things at first; but when JESUS was glorified, then they remembered that these things were written about Him and [that] they had done these things to Him."' ~ JOHN 12:14 -16 (NKJV)..."'that at the name of JJESUS every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that JESUS CHRIST is LORD, to the glory of GOD the Father."' ~ PHILIPPIANS 2:10-11 (NKJV)
