They chanted Hosanna, blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord, even the King of Israel...but he was and is so much more, He comes not "in" the name of the Lord but He is LORD, and more than the King of Israel He is the KING of KINGS! I challenged our church to walk this week through the passion of the entire week, step by step. The crowds welcomed him as king, but he wasn't the king they hoped for, they shouted Hosanna and then with the same tongue shouted Crucify! To the very end He was about the Fathers business, no letting up, no letting down. I pray that we will not be too quick to leap from today to the empty tomb without trying to feel the passion of the week.
