Walking with Jesus in Triumph

Palm Sunday, the “Triumphal Entry” of Jesus in to Jerusalem. Entering as a humble king on a colt never before ridden. Cloaks strewn across the road. Disciples joyfully praising God at the top of their lungs for the miracles they had seen. The genuine and joyful praise offered to God in Jesus’ name absolutely did make this moment filled with “triumph.” Not even the criticism of those from the sect of the Pharisees could squelch this praise, for if those walking with Jesus were silent, the stones would cry out. But the road into Jerusalem also leads to the executioner’s cross, where Jesus would give His life for ours. There would be no triumph for us without His passion (or, suffering), death, and resurrection. A Steward’s Reflection: How does my life celebrate Jesus’ triumph? Living in His victory, in what ways does my life cry out in praise for the One who entered Jerusalem for me?
