Palm Sunday

Last Sunday, Palm Sunday, our church remembered the day that Jesus rode into Jerusalem on a donkey.  I learned recently that in Jesus' day a donkey was an animal that symbolized peace and a horse was an animal that symbolized war.  When a king rode into a town on a horse he was waging war.  Jesus, our king, entered into town in peace.  He knew what the end of the week would bring for him and yet, he came at peace with the price he would pay for us.  His life for ours.  It was the plan from the beginning. It was precious to see the kiddos wave the palm branches and sing Hosanna.  Look at Kate singing her heart out :) and don't miss precious June and Caroline with their little paper palms.
