In the Spirit of Palm Sunday

Yesterday in church, we read the scripture where Jesus comes riding in to town on a horse (as our version said) that had never been ridden. That made me think, "Were the horses/donkeys of bible days different than ours of today?" I think it was a miracle that Jesus made it into town on that horse. First the disciples threw their cloaks over the horses back. You never do that for the first time and expect the horse to stand still. Then Jesus just got on him, and rode through town. Can you imagine how loud and dusty it must have been? All the people were yelling their praises to Jesus and waving the palm branches. Most horses that had never been ridden would have fled in fear, but there is no record of a fallen Jesus or people trampled. What made this horse different? I wonder how that horse knew his royal duty. He was divinely appointed to carry the Savior of the world. I was just wondering.

Okay, one picture that has nothing to do with Easter or Jesus.
Is she an 80's reject....a flashdance wannabe....

...or does she just have a mom that doesn't like her good clothes to get dirty?
