Today we celebrate the entry of Jesus into Jerusalem. No one, except Jesus knew what was to come in just a week's time. I can imagine the excitement, and fanfare. It was Passover, Jesus was the promised Savior. People were excited and it was contagious.
I woke up today so happy and grateful. I had just been sick the night before and it landed me in the hospital. I was so grateful to God to be alive and well at home. For his healing, for the beautiful day, for the sunshine, for my family. I was rejoicing as many did this day so long ago. The savior had come and all was right in the world.
We should wake up everyday rejoicing. We have life and breath. We have another day to get it right. The savior is alive and He loves you. No matter what, each day is a new blessing from God, the opportunity to get to know Him in a deeper way.
Next Sunday has way more pomp and circumstance than today does but today is a reason to celebrate nonetheless. Today, we recognized Jesus as King! Our healer, our savior, our deliverer, Our help in times of struggle. He fulfilled the prophecy and declared who He was. And even though we may not have realized it, it is one of the greatest days in history. Without this declaration it diminishes the significance of His resurrection. He took His place as king, the king above all kings.
So I rejoice. Because God is good. He sent His son to save us and He deserves all of our love and praise.
Be blessed today. He is king and Lord over all that is in this world. So trust Him.
