Ep. 028: It’s Not About the Donkey: A Palm Sunday Reflection
Season 2 Episode 10
In this deeply reflective and anointed Palm Sunday episode of Words of Light for Today, Reverend Linda L. Adkins revisits a beloved message she first preached over 35 years ago—a message the Lord recently brought back to her heart. Centered on Jesus’ triumphant entry into Jerusalem, Reverend Adkins uses the story of the untied donkey in Mark 11 to reveal a powerful spiritual truth: it’s not about the donkey—it’s about the King.
With humor, wisdom, and personal testimony, Reverend Adkins invites us to examine our own lives. Are we living as if the parade is about us? Are we focused on our own importance, or are we surrendered to be carriers of God’s glory? She reminds us that Jesus chose an untamed, overlooked animal to carry Him—and He chooses us in the same way, not because of our strength or perfection, but because He has need of us.
This message is a beautiful reminder that our purpose is to lift up Jesus, and that healing, freedom, and blessing come when we step out of self and into Him.
