Psalm Sunday!

As they approached Jerusalem and came to Bethphage on the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent two disciples,  saying to them, “Go to the village ahead of you, and at once you will find a donkey tied there, with her colt by her. Untie them and bring them to me.  If anyone says anything to you, say that the Lord needs them, and he will send them right away.”
This took place to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet:

“Say to Daughter Zion,
    ‘See, your king comes to you,
gentle and riding on a donkey,
    and on a colt, the foal of a donkey.’”



The disciples went and did as Jesus had instructed them.  They brought the donkey and the colt and placed their cloaks on them for Jesus to sit on.  A very large crowd spread their cloaks on the road, while others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road.   The crowds that went ahead of him and those that followed shouted,
“Hosanna to the Son of David!”
“Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!”
“Hosanna in the highest heaven!”


When Jesus entered Jerusalem, the whole city was stirred and asked, “Who is this?”


The crowds answered, “This is Jesus, the prophet from Nazareth in Galilee.”
(Matthew 21v1-11)


This morning we were all given these crosses as we entered Church.  One of our Small Groups (Bible Study Groups) had decided that they would do this.  On the back of the card with the praying hands was a different verse for everyone :)  Mine is: 

'Call upon me in days of trouble, I will deliver you' (Psalm 50v15).

Other than church today, I have been clearing out my bedroom a bit, and doing some well needed hoovering...oh the dust!

Oh and make Slimming World's version of rice pudding which was very yummy :)

Just about to cook my Zingy Chicken Bake now!

Happy Sunday folks :)
