Holy Week: Palm Sunday

Each year, I like to repost some reflections on holy week. They may be repeat posts, but the sentiment is not stale. Let's remember, His love and sacrifice is the same, today, yesterday, and always.  Palm Sunday (Passion Sunday) marks the beginning of the holiest week in the year. This is the week of our redemption. The week Jesus made salvation open to all. As we work our way towards Easter, lets take a few moments each day to remember why we call ourselves Christians.

I pray you all have a faith-filled and holy week that brings you closer to Christ.
Blessings,
Nicola

“Blessed is the king who comes in the name of the Lord!" (Luke 19:38)

Today marks the day that Jesus entered Jerusalem to joyful cheers of," Hosannah." So many people loved him. So many had witnessed his miracles of healing and hope. The believed Jesus was the key to a better life--and they were right!

Let's take some time to focus on those things that will help us to strengthen the faith we have in Jesus' promises. Let's ask ourselves: Have we made improvements in our prayer life? Have we offered sacrifices to God? Have we given alms or service to those in need? Do we truly believe He is the Messiah enough to put ourselves and our understanding aside and fully rely in Him?
