~Welcome To Sunday At Amy's Place~
The Triumphal Entry 12 The next day the great crowd that had come for the Feast heard that Jesus was on his way to Jerusalem. 13 They took palm branches and went out to meet him, shouting, Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! Blessed is the King of Israel! 14 Jesus found a young donkey and sat upon it, as it is written, -John 12:12-14 (NIV)

Determination
April 13, 2014
Read: Ruth 1:6,11-18;
During a television news report on the plight of refugees displaced from a war-torn country, I was struck by the words of a 10-year-old girl. Despite there being little possibility of returning to their home, she showed a resilient spirit: When we go back, Im going to visit my neighbors; Im going to play with my friends, she said with quiet determination. My father says we dont have a house. And I said we are going to fix it.
There is a place for tenacity in life, especially when it is rooted in our faith in God and love for others. The book of Ruth begins with three women bound together by tragedy. After Naomis husband and two sons died, she decided to return to her home in Bethlehem and urged her widowed daughters-in-law to stay in their country of Moab. Orpah remained but Ruth vowed to go with Naomi, saying, Your people shall be my people, and your God, my God (Ruth 1:16). When Naomi saw that Ruth was determined to go with her (v.18), they began their journey together.
Stubbornness is sometimes rooted in pride, but commitment grows from love. When Jesus went to the cross, He steadfastly set His face to go to Jerusalem (Luke 9:51). From His determination to die for us, we find the resolve to live for Him.
My life, my love, I give to Thee,
Thou Lamb of God who died for me;
Oh, may I ever faithful be,
My Savior and my God! Hudson
Love calls for commitment.
