The LORD JESUS CHRIST’S FIRST Triumphant Entry into Jerusalem began with glorious praises filling the air.

 But it ended in His+ weeping over Jerusalem.  GOD’S Ancient people refused to be set free from sin, hell, and the grave.

However, there is coming a DAY like No Other Day in which HIS+ TRIUMPH will be completed !

#3 ~ LENTEN MEDITATION ~ 2023 ~ for the Preparation of the GREAT PASSOVER ~HUMILIATION

 

We  ALL  want to be humble , like CHRIST. 

We DON’T want to be humiliated , like CHRIST.

How do we learn  humility ?

Humility , that wonderful  virtue of CHRIST, draws us to HIMSELF+ .  That virtue is what makes us NOT afraid to come to CHRIST with our soiled, messed-up, sin-filled lives. HE+ does indeed receive us “just as I am.”
