    A massive crowd spread their cloaks on the road, while others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road. The crowds that went ahead of Him and those that followed were shouting: “Hosanna to the Son of David!” “Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!” “Hosanna in the highest!”Mt21. Welcome King of Kings, Lord of Lords Jesus Christ, the Emmanuel- God is with us. Turning to the disciples in private he said, “Blessed are the eyes that see what you see. For I say to you, many prophets and kings desired to see what you see, but did not see it, and to hear what you hear, but did not hear it.”Lk10.

    Palm Sunday. The reality we are all stepping Palm Sunday events when we are born. Palm Sunday is a symbol of welcoming the Lord into our life. We must celebrate with joy and keep our faith. Accept our weakness and ask Jesus to help us to carry our cross. If we are not able to succeed in that Jesus will take care. Have faith and pray... Amen.
