Activity: Gather a paper towel roll (or two if you want to challenge someone!), something small to eat like mini-marshmallows, chocolate chips, or even cereal like Cheerios or Fruit Loops. Now have fun watching the video below.
People were so focused on Jesus being the king they wanted they missed Him being the Savior they needed. So the same people who praised Him with Hosannas, would be shouting "Crucify Him!" in a few days time. Like looking through a tube, they could only see the narrow focus of the now and their wants, not the eternity and the why of His coming: atonement, forgiveness, for their sins.

So today, take time to praise Jesus as the coming King (think of the scent filling the room). Shout "Hosanna!", but remember that Hosanna means "to rescue, to save"... And that, my friends, is why Jesus came ❤
