The church begins the Advent season today as she joins her voice with believers of all times in blessing the King who comes in the name of the Lord. The crowds in Jerusalem on Palm Sunday celebrated the One who performed miracles and taught with authority. How much more ought we to celebrate the coming of Jesus, who draws near to rescue us by laying down His own life! This is a different kind of king – one who lives to serve and save His people.
