“They brought the donkey and the colt to him and threw their garments over the colt, and he sat on it.” (Matthew 21:7 NLT)
The colt was chosen to carry Jesus through the crowds. He was picked for specific reasons: he wasn’t flashy like a horse, he was available, and he was yielding.
What are the requirements for those of us who are called to convey Christ to 0thers? We must be humble, accessible, and willing. We can’t be skittish or stubborn. We must maintain a low profile, so as to keep the focus on God.
Carrying Christ to others can be intimidating. The crowd can turn unruly at any moment. People are fickle. One week they will be full of praise and acceptance; yet, the next week they may be filled with complaints and accusations. Remain calm and confident. God’s got your back. May each step be unhurried and unworried as you move forward with Christ.
Lord, train us to be humble, willing, and available as we convey Your message to others.
