THE DONKEYS CROSS
"Bring me the colt of a donkey" was the masters request
A young donkey was brought to Jesus to carry him into Jerusalem
A week later Jesus was ordered to be crucified
The little donkey so loved the lord that he wanted to help him carry the cross
But, alas he was pushed away
The sad little donkey waited to say goodbye until nearly all had left
As he turned to leave, the shadow of the cross fell across his back and shoulders
And there it has remained, a tribute to the loyalty and the love of one of the
humblest of gods creatures
Do we have such love and loyalty for our Lord that we are so clearly marked?
