One Week

Luke 21:37

37Each day Jesus was teaching at the temple, and each evening he went out to spend the night on the hill called the Mount of Olives,

It was the last week of Jesus' earthly ministry. He did not spend it living it up nor did He spend it in complete solitude. In His last week of life, Jesus was still teaching at the temple. He was still giving of himself though He knew He was about to suffer a horrible death. If you knew you had one week left, what would you be doing? Would it be the selfless type of acts that Jesus displayed? Or would it be "all about you?" At night Jesus spent His time on the hill that looked over the city taking in the earthly view in His current state. Jesus accomplished a great deal within that one week. He came in on the donkey which was His triumphant ride that was also prophesied. He taught in the temple, had the last supper or passover meal with the disciples to prepare them for His departure and then that Friday was crucified for the remission of our sins. All week long  in His last week of earthly life, Jesus displayed love and concern for others. Never doubt the amount of love Jesus has for you. He spent His entire earthly life preparing for that one week.
