Hosanna!
“The Faithbook Experiment continues.
This morning I awoke unusually early for a Saturday. As tomorrow is Palm
Sunday, so many thoughts were on my heart as I opened my Bible. I read the various accounts in the gospels
telling of Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem to shouts of Hosanna. What a joyous
moment it must have been for HIS followers! They weren’t expecting what was
about to happen. Their eyes hadn’t been opened. They didn’t yet know that God’s
plan was playing out before their very eyes.
Jesus’ arrest, torture, trial, and
crucifixion didn’t make sense to them. It wasn’t what they were expecting. After
Jesus was placed in the tomb the disciples thought it was all over. The glory
that was about to happen took them by surprise.
That’s how it often is with me, even
though I have an advantage the disciples didn’t have. The story is written in
full and I know the ending. Yet, sometimes I lose hope, get discouraged, and
think all is lost.
This
morning, as The Faithbook Experiment continues, my heart’s cry is
Lord, help me
to remember that you are Hosanna, King of Glory. The ending has been written
and it is glorious!
Hosanna!
