Guiding Presence
The story of Holy Week is a journey we walk through bit by bit, keeping our eyes on Jesus rather than on the final destination. It’s the same way the Israelites had to wander through the wilderness: God only gives us enough to see the very next step. When Jesus entered Jerusalem, didn’t ride in on a war horse - in fact, this was a caricature of the way Roman emperors would ride in on a white horse when they arrived. His entrance showed that God’s power is not coming in judgment; but it is coming in humility to those who will receive it. Exodus 33:7-23, 34:1-10, 27-32
