Palm Sunday and welcoming the light

All ye who enter here, abandon hate
Thus freedom comes, thus peace
Uncelestial City: Humbert Wolfe

Took branches of palm trees, and went forth and cried, Hosanna: Blessed is the King of Israel that cometh in the name of the Lord.
John 12:13

Fear not, daughter of Sion; behold, they king cometh
John 12:15

I am come a light unto the world, that whosever believeth on me should not abide in darkness.
John 12: 46

It was in a place of supposed darkness that she found not only a turning, but a healing.

Man's absurd desire to replace God is matched only by his inability to learn from his past.

So long ago we don't even know when the practice began, people saw the need for regular prayer. People from all walks of life halting every hour to give a short prayer. Only a few brief words, but every hour they took time to turn to God.
The Book of Hours: T. Davis Burns.

Turn ye unto me, saith the Lord of hosts, and I will turn unto you
Zech 1:3
