Your King is Coming to You - by Elizabeth Reynolds

One of my favourite pictures of Jesus, is that of Him riding on a donkey. Why did He ride on a donkey? He made a particular point of asking His disciples to go and find the particular colt (a donkey’s foal) for the job. And not only that, but this colt and its mother were known by Jesus to already be in a nearby village waiting. They were there by heavenly design for the moment when the King of kings would require them.

Tears - Laura Duke

This song speaks of how the presence of God is a Holy Place where we are free to lift up our sorrows to God and to make a sacrifice to Him of all our shame. When I heard these words, my head began to reel and spin with all of the biblical connotations of tears, shame and sacrifice.
