This Sunday we will commemorate Palm Sunday. The readings begin with the triumphant entrance of Jesus into Jerusalem; they end with the Passion of Our Lord. In the proclamation of this passage we are asked to be the voice of the crowd and respond: "Crucify him.” It is unimaginable that for the One who affirmed the love of God the Father, embraced the sinner, and sought out the lost, we could repeat these words. Yet, it continues today, not through words but with actions that wound Jesus and fracture the Body of Christ. Dear friends, pray this week that we may have a permanent conversion of heart, that as we begin the holiest of weeks, we make sure our actions do not say, “Crucify him” but rather: “Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord…Hosanna in the Highest.”
