And many spread their clothes on the 
road, and others cut down leafy 
branches from the trees and spread 
them on the road. Then those who went 
before and those who followed cried 
out, saying: "Hosanna! "'Blessed is He 
who comes in the name of the Lord!'
                    ( Mark 11:8-9 *NKJV ) 

  Dear Addison,
      Jesus' final week of His Earthly Ministry began with
  Him riding a donkey colt into the City and thus His
  triumphal entry into Jerusalem.  Thus fulfilling the
  Prophecy of Zechariah, "Rejoice greatly, 
 O daughter of Zion! Shout, O daughter of 
 Jerusalem! Behold, your King is coming to you; 
 He is just and having salvation, Lowly and riding 
 on a donkey, A colt, the foal of a donkey.
                                              ( Zechariah 9:9 ) 

      Remember, this was Sunday of the same week that
  Jesus would be crucified, and the great Passover Festival
  was about to begin!   Jews came to Jerusalem from all
  over the Roman Empire during this week-long celebration,
  to worship and remember the great Exodus from Egypt.
  ( Exodus 12:37-51 )  The same people who cried out
 "Hosanna!" "Blessed is he who comes in the name
 of the Lord! changed their cries to; "Crucify Him, crucify
 Him!" before the week was over.
                               ( Mark 11:9 & John 19:6 ) 

      So on this Palm Sunday we reflect on Christ's last
  few days in human form, and what a great price HE paid
  for our sins! For God so loved the world that 
 He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever
 believes in Him should not perish but have 
 everlasting life. For God did not send His Son
 into the world to condemn the world, but that
 the world through Him might be saved.
                                             ( John 3:16-17 ) 

      What a tremendous price and sacrifice that was!
  This is a true demonstration of how very much our
  Heavenly Father loves each one of  us! 

      So Addison, why not pause for a moment or two and
  Thank our Savior for what HE did for you, and me,
  and the rest of HIS Children as well.  Why not also
  attend the Church of your choice, and tell HIM how
  much you love HIM, for that will make HIS Day! 

   All My Love & Prayers,
         Pastor Allen
