This Vernal Equinox; Palm Sunday

This Palm Sunday is also the vernal equinox. The end of winter and the beginning of spring. There is an appropriate metaphor for the convergence of Palm Sunday and the vernal equinox on this day.

This Sunday marks the passing of dark winter, and the Passion week of Christ. This day also denotes a fruitful spring to come, and it points to His glorious resurrection and everlasting life of spring eternal

"The LORD your God is in your midst,
A victorious warrior
He will exult over you with joy,
He will be quiet in His love,
He will rejoice over you with shouts of joy." (Zephaniah 3:17, NASB)

"Hosanna! BLESSED IS HE WHO COMES IN THE NAME OF THE LORD" (John 12:13, NASB)
