The Way to Peace
When Jesus rode into Jerusalem on what we now call Palm Sunday, the people bowed down and placed palm fronds on the ground for Him to ride over.
This action was a show that they were welcoming, not just any person, but a king.
As people were worshiping Him, and shouting, "Hosannah! Blessed is the king of Israel!" what do you think He did?
He wept because He knew that these people did not understand what would lead them to the ultimate peace they were looking for.
It wasn't glorious in human terms. It was, instead, the humility of one man, the earth-shaking, death-reversing sacrifice of the God of all creation. The power of His freely given life swallowed up death itself for all who would choose to follow Him.
He is the way to peace.
Always remember there is hope with God.
“The power of His freely given life swallowed up death itself for all who would choose to follow Him.”
John 12:12-13
