Born Again? I Know I Am -- A Stone Singing Out!

Jesus Comes to Jerusalem as King

"After Jesus had said this, he went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem. As he approached Bethphage and Bethany at the hill called the Mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples, saying to them, “Go to the village ahead of you, and as you enter it, you will find a colt tied there, which no one has ever ridden. Untie it and bring it here. If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you untying it?’ say, ‘The Lord needs it.’”

Those who were sent ahead went and found it just as he had told them. As they were untying the colt, its owners asked them, “Why are you untying the colt?”

They replied, “The Lord needs it.”

They brought it to Jesus, threw their cloaks on the colt and put Jesus on it. As he went along, people spread their cloaks on the road.

When he came near the place where the road goes down the Mount of Olives, the whole crowd of disciples began joyfully to praise God in loud voices for all the miracles they had seen:

“Blessed is the king who comes in the name of the Lord!”

“Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!”

Some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to Jesus, “Teacher, rebuke your disciples!”

“I tell you,” he replied, “if they keep quiet, the stones will cry out.”

As he approached Jerusalem and saw the city, he wept over it and said, “If you, even you, had only known on this day what would bring you peace—but now it is hidden from your eyes." Luke 19:28-42


There has been countless mornings when I wake up, and the second I open my eyes I realize that there was a song "playing" inside of me. And no, it wasn't Spotify still playing on replay on my headphone or bluetooth speaker.

It was like my spirit was singing inside of me -- singing a song of praise to the God who created me. It was like my heart is singing, my heart which was for a long time a heart of stone is now a changed heart, a heart of flesh. It is now a soft heart, a tender heart, a heart which can love and be loved.

Stone Crying Out

And now it sings. It sings silently. It sings softly. It sings unconsciously. It has been silenced long enough, now it is crying out, even on its own. And it sings out aloud.

Oh how the Jesus weeps for those who has yet to understand any of these.
