Palm Sunday

Today, we looked at Jesus riding into Jerusalem on a donkey and that first Palm Sunday. We noted how this dramatic act put him in centre stage so that all would know of him. We looked at how this was a claim to be Zions king and at how royal coronation symbolism was used and how prophecy was fulfilled.
We considered the reaction of the people, how some rejoiced and some were critical. We thought of how the Lord must have rejoiced but also filled with sadness that people were to reject him.
We reflected on the costliness of Holy Week and the great love of Jesus for all mankind.
We were urged to look to our motives and seek to be moved as we reflect again on the last week of Jesus life.
Every blessing,

Rev`d Theo Corney
