Wild Hosannas

Jesus made his triumphal entry into Jerusalem to the cheers of his followers chanting "Hosanna to the Son of David."  and waving palm branches, but Jesus knew  that despite the wild welcome it would not continue through the week, and after it was over, and the chants had melted into bitter cries for his crucifixion, he would rise from the dead, his mission complete.  Our Lenten journey ends on Holy Thursday at the Liturgy of the Lord's Supper, and we follow prayerfully his footsteps, with purer, more dedicated hearts than when we began on Ash Wednesday.  Let us listen to the reading of Luke's passion narrative, with open hearts, and reflect on it during this day in gratitude for the saving act of love that Jesus so willingly gave for us.
