The Very Stones Will Cry Out

Palm Sunday is the day that followers of Jesus remember and celebrate his sacrificial love, shown as he triumphantly entered Jerusalem on a carpet of palm branches and clothing. The day of his entry started the events of Holy Week, in which he taught daily in the Temple courtyard, was confronted and challenged by some because of his teachings, and celebrated a Last Supper with his disciples before he was betrayed, arrested, tried and sentenced to die on the cross of Calvary for our sins.
As Jesus traveled down the hillside of Mount Olivet towards Jerusalem that day, he reminded the crowds around him that if his followers did not lift praise to him, the very stones themselves would cry in witness to him. In other words, it is our privilege and joy to share the story of Jesus' amazing love and grace with a world that desperately needs to hear it.
Come and join us at Sugar Land First United Methodist this Sunday as we travel along the route with Jesus and into the world with his love.
