Triumph Through Tragedy

On Palm Sunday, Jesus entered Jerusalem to shouts of "Hosanna! Blessed is the king who comes in the name of the Lord!" By riding into the city on the foal of a donkey, Christ was confirming their cries. He was coming to save His people. In less than a week, the hopes of Christ's followers were dashed. It seemed that triumph had turned to tragedy. But Christ was not being defeated. He triumphed through the tragedy.
