Evening: Psalm 103; Zechariah 12:9-11; 13:1, 7-9; Matthew 21:12-17
As a four-year-old, Ali ran up to Mona: “Mom, Adam lost his button, ‘Praise the Lord!’” Adam had a metal button that said: ‘Praise the Lord!’ Mona was shocked at Ali’s apparent religious fervour! When Jesus healed people, the children cried ‘Hosanna!’ (‘Praise the Lord!’) Religious people were angry that they called him ‘Lord’. Then Jesus recited the famous words, which most people do not realize are adapted from Psalm 8: “Out of the mouths of infants and nursing babies ... you have prepared praise for yourself.” Children often show us authentic truth about God. Watch them; you will see.
