Palm Sunday Celebration<\/h2>\n\n\n\n


Palm Sunday is the Sunday before the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Why is it so important for believers to pay attention to that special day?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the past years, I have not mentioned the significance of this day. However, in light of this year’s theme, I believe, it is appropriate to share my thought on it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reasons for celebration<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This year, I talked a lot on preparation and part of it was to get ready for something important. Palm Sunday was Jesus preparing for the most important even of his life. It also prepared everyone for what was about to happen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Did we know what was Jesus thinking when he rode on the donkey as he entered Jerusalem? Did he ever doubt? If you were Jesus, what would you do?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Palm Sunday – Reasons He did it<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

One reason was to remind ourselves that on that Sunday, the crowd honored Him. They fulfilled God’s plan, whether they knew it or not. Our existence could become part of God’s plan and purpose. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another reason to celebrate, was to remind ourselves that Jesus <\/a>thought of you and me while he rode down the street of Jerusalem. He did not give in to His emotions. Ultimately, He did it for us. He did it to fulfill His Father’s plan. Imagine, what if He decided not to go through the plan?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
