"Bring me the
colt of a donkey,"
was the
Master's request.
A young donkey
was brought to Jesus to carry him to Jerusalem.
A week later
Jesus was ordered crucified.
The little
donkey so loved the Lord,
that he wanted
to help carry the cross.
But alas, he
was pushed away.
The sad little
donkey waited to say good-bye until nearly all had left.
As he turned
to leave, the shadow of the cross fell upon his shoulders.
And there it
has remained,
a tribute to
the loyalty and love
of the
humblest of God's Creatures.
