Palm Sunday

On the Mount of Olives Jesus looked out on the city of Jerusalem. 

The city that killed the prophets and would soon kill Him. 

How He longed to gather Jerusalem as a mother hen gathers her chicks under her wings,

But they refused. Lk. 13:34

And He wept. 

Now From Heaven, Jesus looks down on the world;

For He still longs to gather us as a mother hen gathers her chicks under her wings,

But we refuse. 

And He weeps. 

How can we expect our tears to move God,

When the tears of God do not move us!
