Palm Sunday Quotes

“The Donkey

When fishes flew and forests walked
And figs grew upon thorn,
Some moment when the moon was blood
Then surely I was born.

With monstrous head and sickening cry
And ears like errant wings,
The devil's walking parody
On all four-footed things.

The tattered outlaw of the earth,
Of ancient crooked will;
Starve, scourge, deride me: I am dumb,
I keep my secret still.

Fools! For I also had my hour;
One far fierce hour and sweet:
There was a shout about my ears,
And palms before my feet.”
― G.K. Chesterton

“He set an example
by washing their feet,
commanding them to do unto one another
the very same feat.”

“The Gospel reveals a real k truth that if we don't see Jesus' death as our only hope for salvation, we are among the lost. But thank God, the Son of Man came to seek and save the lost, and He went to the cross to do so. The depth of His sacrifice is beyond our comprehension, but it's what makes our salvation possible. He had to die to save us from the darkness of sin and death. May we grasp the necessity of His death and find eternal life in Him.”
