Luke 19:29f - Palm Sunday

For all the prophecy and study that the Jews had regarding the coming messiah, no one got that correct, and then after he came as he taught in and around the area, they still didn't get it straight. But he did. Jesus knew what he was doing and in spite of everyone else's confusion he was not confused. This is the correct light to see Palm Sunday in.

So roll up your sleeves, put your mind in gear, be totally ready to receive the gift that’s coming when Jesus arrives. Don’t lazily slip back into those old grooves of evil, doing just what you feel like doing. You didn’t know any better then; you do now. As obedient children, let yourselves be pulled into a way of life shaped by God’s life, a life energetic and blazing with holiness. God said, “I am holy; you be holy. [1 Peter 1:13-16]
