It la recorded that when Jesua tame from Bethany on the day of his Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem, ha sent two of his dkclplea to go to a place where two ways met and to loose the colt which they would find there and bring him to Jesus that the humble beast might be a mount for the Christ as he rode into the city of hla fathers. And the multitude that followed with him and they who Went before broke branches from trees along the way and spread them in the way, and correctly identifying the occasion with a passage of the Psalms, they cried: “Hosanna, blessed Is he that cometh in name of the Lord!” And the whole city was moved, Mying, “Who is this?” ’ Several lessons are to be drawn from the record of the Triumphal Entry. It may lead us to think of •nd contrast Sunday religion and Weekday religion. When you sit in a cushioned pew, where the light softly filters through rich Stained-glass windows the anthem is good, the congregational singing is uplifting and the pastor’s sermon inspiring, it may seem easy to be religious, but when the trials of the every-day come religion may be another matter, bo some of those who hailed Jesus ^dth glad acclaim on Palm Sunday may have followed him afar Off on Good Friday. And so It may ba fn other Thus may the Spirit lead us to “A faith that will not shrink, though pressed by every foe, that w ill not tremble on the brink of •ay earthly woe.”
