Palm Sunday

Hosanna in the Highest, Hosanna in the Highest, the people shouted as the Lord came on a donkey.  The Lord riding in on a donkey is very symbolic.  In the days of our Lord, Kings rode on one of two animals.  A horse or a donkey.  When they entered into a city if they were on a horse they were on a mission of war.  If they rode in on a donkey they were on a mission of peace.

Jesus rides into the city of Jerusalem on a donkey...coming to bring peace.  Peace comes with the Lord's subsequent arrest, trial, crucifixion, and resurrection.  One only knows the Lord of Peace when they recognize His kingship through the death of God and the empty tomb of God.

The only God who brings peace to His people, is the only God, who conquered death.  This Palm Sunday, may you shout Peace on Earth, as you recognize the Peace that Christ brings to you!
