Palm Sunday provides a special feeling as we contemplate many early disciples who prepared to meet the Lord over 2000 years ago. As we prepare to meet the Lord at his Second Coming, striving to live His teachings, will assist us in our preparation. Sincere repentance, daily prayer, faith, humility, and love toward others, will help us prepare for that glorious day. Preparing to meet Him is not about perfection, but about consistent effort and a willing heart, trusting that through His grace we can be made whole and ready to stand in His presence with peace and joy.
