Just For Today . . .The Days Between . . .4/6/09

Dear Holy Friends,
    He went into town, knowing He would not leave. He knew what was to come. And I believe, if we take the time to look at what He did each day the last week of His life we can get one of the most beautiful pictures of what grace really is.
 
In His Grip, Chandra
 
The Days Between
 
He entered town in honor and victory
    crowd singing jubilant song
They waved, cheered, and shouted
    how could it go so wrong?
Yet, amidst the joy of that day
    He knew what was to come
How could He smile and celebrate
    knowing what would be done?
 
Still, He rode in with great joy
    loving everyone He met
Could any of us do something like that
    love those we knew would forget?
I think of how He spent His last week
    healing, teaching, doing miraculous things
I wonder if I could give my self like that
    knowing what week's end would bring.
 
Yesterday, we remembered His triumphal entry
    it was a joyous and happy day
Next week we celebrate His resurrection
    He rose from death to provide us the Way.
But we mustn't forget the days between
    which He walked with mercy and grace
Because of Him and all that He did
    in heaven I have a place.
