“The Lord has need of it” (v34). One of the themes we see in Luke’s writing is his awareness of the difference between what we could  describe as “givers and takers”. We see it in parables and even salvation narratives. Here, Jesus is preparing to go into Jerusalem to fulfill prophecy and die for the sins of the world. But a prophecy joined to that was that He would ride into Jerusalem on "the foal of a donkey” (Zech. 9:9). It did not seem like much, but “the Lord had need of it.”  And the owner gladly provided it.

What do you have that the Lord can use?
