We are now approaching Holy Week which begins with Hosannas on Palm Sunday and ends with Alleluias on Easter Sunday. And in between comes the awe and sorrow on Good Friday. Which layers on the meaning of Palm Sunday as we watch Jesus entering the city of Jerusalem in triumph but in a way that inverts expectations. He comes, not as a warrior, but himbly on a donkey. He comes, not to wage a battle against the Roman oppressors but against sin and death - the oppressors of the whole world. His victory does not come with the slaughter of others but his own death upon a cross. And he finds time to share food with his friends and humbly wash their feet. What a wonderful Saviour!
This challenge is to reflect creatively on what the Servant King means for you. If you feel led to join us this week on our challenge, please leave us a comment with a link back to your blog or online gallery. We'd love to share in your creation!
