The Donkey — Jesus’ Limo

Happy Palm Sunday! Today, we celebrate our Lord’s triumphant entrance into Jerusalem where He was welcomed by crowds praising and worshipping Him and laying down palm leaves to honor Him. The palms, the “hosanas”, the worship and praise is typically our focus today.

But, I’d like to add some focus to the donkey — he was Jesus’ special “ride” into Jerusalem. That little donkey did what he could do. His greatest calling in life was to answer the invitation of the Master when He called, “I have need of him!” He was a “limo” for the King. He was only a donkey, but he did what he could do!

Isn’t that the way our “love” service should be for Him. When He says, “I have need of you”, our greatest response should be, “Here I am Lord, send me! I will do what I can do!” So I’ll start with what I can do today — praising, worshipping and declaring “Hosanna in the Highest — all praise, honor and glory be to You, Lord Jesus Christ!”
