the guy with the donkey

To let you in on a little secret, this week is my favorite week. It's the treck that Jesus took from Jericho to Jerusalem. i love it because it is no ordinary week. For on this week hinged the door of eternity. Yours & mine. The week leads us straight to the garden on Thursday, the Cross on Friday... and the Resurrection of Sunday, for He is Risen Indeed!
... Start the treck with Jesus, open your Bibles to Matthew 21, read about the triumphal entry & the guy with the donkey. Sunday is the symbolic day were celebrate when Jesus entered Jerusalem with all the people waving palms. Jesus claimed to be King. He is speaking as one in authority. He is stating that as King He has rights to any possessions of His subjects ... but what if He didn't start the journey and ask... and what if for loads of years i totally turned a deaf ear to humbleness... and acknowleding that my gifts are His gifts, and that all things that are credited to me are because Jesus counted me as righteous? Where the heck would i be? Who would i be without the LOVE of Jesus poured out on to me? Thank you Lord that your thougths are high above & that you know the plans you have for me. Thank you for your triumphal entry into my heart.
