If you run the red light, one of two hurtful things is going to happen. Either God will do something more drastic and more painful to stop you, or He'll get out of your way and He'll let you walk right into the very unhappy ending down the road. But today...today He's giving you one more chance to stop before the cliff ahead. Don't choose the pain of running God's red light. Stop - before you get hit. http://biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew%2021:1-7&version=NIV 2009-10-02T12:09:58-05:00 When Jesus entered Jerusalem, he had his disciples go ahead of him and bring him a donkey and its colt. He entered the city riding on the back of the donkey in order to fulfill a prophecy that had been written about him in Zechariah. http://biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew%2021:1-11&version=NIV 2009-07-20T15:09:41-05:00 When Jesus made his triumphal appearance in Jerusalem, he rode in not on a majestic horse, but on a humble donkey. It was a telling symbol for a Savior who came not with political power or military might, but with humility and a spirit of self-sacrifice.
