I quote:
The crowds preceding him and those following
kept crying out and saying:
"Hosanna to the Son of David;
blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord;
hosanna in the highest."
And when he entered Jerusalem
the whole city was shaken and asked, "Who is this?"
And the crowds replied,
"This is Jesus the prophet, from Nazareth in Galilee."
end quote
Today's readings teach us that public acclaim can change over night, sufficiently to inform us that public support is a fleeting phenomenon.
Each of us will face tough chapters sufficient to teach us that when times appear difficult, by cooperating with Our Father a remedy will present itself encouraging us to rely more, and more on Our Father's wise counselling. Growing patience during our anxious periods leads us to learn the lessons being taught for our benefit and well being.
Give your worries to the Lord,
and he will take care of you.
He will never let good people down.
~ Psalm 55:22
