Dearest Savior,
On this holy day, we remember how the crowds cheered.
We shout blessings to you Lord, saying hosanna in the highest.
The day also brings to memory the tears of Jesus as he looked upon Jerusalem.
In grief, he spoke of a city who would reject their king.
We also recall how crowds would gather against Jesus later that week.
Cries for death and crucifixion would fill the sky.
These verses cause us to examine ourselves and our motives.
Have mercy on us that we might see clearly and act justly.
Help us to see ourselves clearly and our circumstances through new eyes.
Bless us to be people who welcome you every day of our lives.
Cause us to be ones who bring you joy and delight.
Above all help us to be people who love you and each other.
Amen.
