It begins with what we call Palm Sunday (or what was at times known as Passion Sunday) and ends with Easter Sunday.This particular week took on more and more institutional focus over the twenty centuries since they occurred.

We are told that God is all-sufficient for the needs in our lives, and that is totally true… on one level. He is all-sufficient and totally reliable. Nothing in this world is perfect except for Him. When our lives are pushed to the edge, we can find Him to be all that we need because He is the only one that can…
