Each year, I like to repost some reflections on holy week. They may be repeat posts, but the sentiment is not stale. Let’s remember, His love and sacrifice is the same, today, yesterday, and always.  Palm Sunday (Passion Sunday) marks the beginning of the holiest week in the
\nyear. This is the week of our redemption. The week Jesus made salvation
\nopen to all. As we work
\nour way towards Easter, lets take a few moments each day to remember why
\n we call ourselves Christians.<\/p>\n

I pray you all have a faith-filled and holy week that brings you closer to Christ.
\nBlessings,
\nNicola<\/p>\n

\nToday marks the day that Jesus entered Jerusalem to joyful cheers of,”
\nHosannah.” So many people loved him. So many had witnessed his miracles
\n of healing and hope. The believed Jesus was the key to a better
\nlife–and they were right!<\/p>\n

Let’s take some time to focus on those things that will help us to
\nstrengthen the faith we have in Jesus’ promises. Let’s ask ourselves:
\nHave we made improvements in our prayer life? Have we offered sacrifices
\n to God? Have we given alms or service to those in need? Do we truly
\nbelieve He is the Messiah enough to put ourselves and our understanding
\naside and fully rely in Him?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
