34 Day of Lent, March 28, 2026Zechariah 9:9

 

Proclaimed around 470 BC by the prophet in the Old Testament, details even down to a colt, the foal of a donkey.

It messed up the thoughts of a mighty warrior riding in on a stallion to free the people.

The verse is a symbol of peace and humility.

Today, are we willing to set aside our pride and ego to serve others with love and compassion, like Jesus?

It challenges us to examine our values and priorities, reminding us that true greatness is found in serving others.
