His Calling

If you're familiar with the church calendar, the Sunday before Easter is called Palm Sunday - named for the palm branches waved in praise and placed as an ancient form of -red carpet- before Jesus. On that day, Jesus entered the city of Jerusalem to shouts of worship and honor - and just a few days later, those same people called for His crucifixion.--There are lessons to be learned here, from the donkey, the disciples, and from the people who were devoted followers of Jesus until He failed to overthrow the Romans. And the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecy should encourage us to trust in the future God predicts in His Word.
