The Stones Would Cheer!
Jesus rode along the road toward Jerusalem. The followers
spread their coats on the road before Jesus. Jesus was coming
close to Jerusalem. He was already near the bottom of the
Mount of Olives. The whole group of followers were happy.
They were very excited and praised God. They thanked God for
all the powerful things they had seen. They said, "Welcome!
God bless the king that comes in the name of the Lord. Peace
in heaven and glory to God!" Some of the Pharisees said to
Jesus, "Teacher, tell your followers not to say these
things!" But Jesus answered, "I tell you, these things must
be said. If my followers don't say these things, then these
rocks will say them."
-- Luke 19:36-40 (ERV)
KEY THOUGHT:
Isn't it sad that people still get upset when they think that folks are
too exuberant over the presence of Jesus? Even worse, family members of
those who come to Christ for salvation often criticize these new
Christians for believing great things about Jesus. Little do they know
that creation shouts his praise and that the angels of heaven shout out
his glory. Let's not let anyone or anything shame us into silence about
our glorious Savior.
TODAY'S PRAYER:
Father, your Son is marvelous, glorious, gracious, and precious to me.
I want the world to know that he is not only my Savior, but also the
Savior of all people. Give me wisdom to know how best to communicate
this truth in each situation in which I find myself. However, dear
Father, may my spoken admiration for your Son and my life's witness to
his grace never be withheld because I'm afraid of what others may think
of me. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
