The crowds shouted Jesus’ praise and hailed the coming of the King that first Palm Sunday, but by Friday the crowds were shouting for Jesus’ execution. Knowing what we know about Jesus, that raises many questions in our minds. John writes in his Gospel that even the disciples didn’t understand it while it was happening, but “Only after Jesus was glorified did they realize that these things had been written about him and that these things had been done to him.” This week we’ll use Palm Sunday and John’s words as a mirror for ourselves. Do we understand? Will we respond accordingly? The King is Coming!
