Scripture: Matthew 21:1–14; Isaiah 50:4–9
Palm Sunday is more than a celebration—it is a turning point. As Jesus enters Jerusalem, He does so with intention, humility, and purpose. While the crowd cries out “Hosanna,” longing for immediate rescue, Jesus reveals a different kind of salvation—one that comes through humility, obedience, and the cross. In this moment, we are reminded that faith is not only about receiving salvation but also about being sent as part of God’s answer to the world's cries.

We don’t just shout “Hosanna”—we carry it. As Christ saves us, He also sends us to live as His presence in the world, becoming part of God’s answer to someone else’s cry for help.
