Standing on the edge of what looks like disaster,

we wonder if we will lose our freedom.

Jesus entered Jerusalem.

And when he entered Jerusalem, the whole city was stirred up,

saying, “Who is this?”

He’s the One who called them to step into the water; the One

who brought them through the waters; the One who stirred

the waters.

I’ve got a song on my mind: Wade in the waters.

Freedom is costly.

We see God’s hand most often when we move forward in obedience.

For the slaves who fled their oppressors in America, the streams hid

them from the dogs, but they always had to step out… hoping.

“Now I know that the LORD saves his anointed;

he will answer him from his holy heaven

with the saving might of his right hand.

Some trust in chariots and some in horses,

but we trust in the name of the LORD our God.”

Psalm 20:6-7
