Amen and amen. If you got your Bibles, I hope you do. John chapter 12 is going to pick it up.

We're going to dive right in. I've got a lot to say. I've been a little long in the last two,

but I'm in a good mood, which is really dangerous, okay? There's a lot of good things happening

in our world right now, a lot of bad too, but there's a lot of good. There's football in the air. Praise God for that. Kids are back in school. Can I get a witness for there?

Saturate is coming up and it's almost deer season. Some of my favorite things, not in that order.

So anyway, let's go. John 12, 12. He says the next day and the day before what he's referencing is what we talked about last week.

Mary pouring out worship on the feet of Jesus is what we talked about last week, Mary, pouring out worship

on the feet of Jesus and honestly way to go last week and so far this week and pouring out

your heart for worship. So the next day, a large crowd that had come to the feast heard that

Jesus was coming to Jerusalem. And so they took branches of palm trees and they went out

to meet him crying out,

Hosanna, blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord, even the king of Israel.

Now, this is what we commonly refer to in church as Palm Sunday, that Jesus is going to get

on a colt.

We'll get there in a minute.

He's going to come into Jerusalem, and all of Jerusalem gathers together.

They take their cloaks or coats off.

They get palm branches.

They wave them and they cheer.

Hosanna, blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.

And I'm just going to tell you, I got some mixed emotions about it.

How many of you went to church, grew up in a church, and you did Palm Sunday. Like you got the palm branches when you came in, and you waved them and waved them. Okay, we, a lot of people do that.
