02 April 2023 | Palm Sunday | Matthew 21:1~11

When Jesus came to Jerusalem, he rode on a donkey and the people were very happy to see him. This was a special moment because it meant that Jesus was the chosen one for whom people had been waiting for a long time, and they believed in their hearts that he would help them. The donkey that Jesus rode on is a symbol of humility, which means that Jesus was not proud or boastful, but kind and gentle. The people were so excited to see him that they spread clothes and palm branches on the ground in front of him as a sign of respect.

But Jesus knew that he had a greater mission, and that was to save people from their sins. He knew that he would have to go through a lot of pain and suffering and he was willing to do whatever it took to complete his mission. He knew that he would soon be arrested, suffer and eventually be crucified on the cross. This was his sacrifice for all of us, and it shows how much he loved us. So when we remember Jesus' entry into Jerusalem, we should think about how much he loves us and how he was willing to do anything to save us.
