Yesterday, Palm Sunday, was such a blessed day as we waved our palm branches, shouted "Hosanna" and sang "In the New Jerusalem"!! We almost felt like we were among the crowd in Jerusalem so long ago adding our voices to the throng and shouting --"Blessed is He that cometh in the name of the Lord"!
Even though we were not in the crowd that day over 2,000 years ago, the Master sees you and me today. Psalm 139:1-4, says: "O Lord, Thou hast searched me, and known me. Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, Thou understandest my thought afar off. Thou compassest my path, and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways. For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O Lord, Thou knowest it altogether."
I cannot grasp even a fraction of what it cost Jesus to purchase my salvation on Calvary's Cross, but as I walk with Jesus through this Holy Week, I want these words to be the longing of my heart and the prayer on my lips --
"Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts: And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting." Amen!
