The Donkey's Cross
"Bring me the colt of a donkey,"
was
the Master's request.
A young donkey was brought
to Jesus
to carry Him into Jerusalem.
A week later Jesus was
ordered 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 upon his back
and shoulder.
And there it has remained,
a tribute to
the loyalty and love of the
humblest
of God's creatures.
