On this day almost 2,000 years ago, Jesus entered Jerusalem for the last time before he was killed.
The scriptures say:
And the disciples brought a colt, and put on it their clothes; and Jesus took the colt and sat thereon; and they followed him.
And a very great multitude spread their garments in the way; others cut down branches from the trees, and strawed them in the way.
And the multitudes that went before, and that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna to the Son of David: Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest.
The people in Jerusalem spread branches and their clothing—similar to putting a red carpet on the floor—to show respect and honor to Jesus.
We can show respect and honor to Jesus today by following the commandments and saying prayers.
I know Jesus is my Savior and he loves all of us.
In the name of Jesus Christ, amen.
