Those who cut the branches and spread their coats expected a lot from Jesus. They didn't expect enough. They wanted a king; they needed so much more. ~taken from His Passion: Christ's Journey to the Resurrection"...I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly." ~Jesus (John 10:10b)

Reminds me of the two who wanted to sit by Jesus' side at dinner and He asked "do you really want to drink from my cup?" They thought of Him still as an earthly king I think...not realizing what a holy person He was and what He was going to have to endure.
ReplyDeletePretty new header.
ReplyDeleteAnd since you love yellow. :-))))
Did you realize that a large number of Romans who embraced Christianity were women? They saw Christ and his message as a emanicipation proclamation.
