The Journey
Mark 11:1-11
Scripture for March 28

Do you remember a time when you saw someone who you had not seen in a long, long time? Think about how excited you were to see the person and all the feelings that you felt. Well, that gives you some idea of how the people were feeling as Jesus entered Jerusalem in our Scripture for Sunday. Read the passage and imagine that you are there as Jesus enters Jerusalem. Hear the crowd as He passes by, look around at all the people who have come to see Him, notice the looks on their faces. Some are so happy, others aren’t too sure what to make of Him and a few have looks of anger because so many people are cheering Him. As Jesus rides into Jerusalem to shouts of Hosanna, Holy Week begins. And it doesn’t end as it began…

Well God, I wonder if I would have gone to see Jesus or would I have stayed home? Would I have wondered if He really was the Son of God or was He just someone who wanted attention? I wonder what I would have done, God…Amen.
