In our provider, He places in our hands everything we need, even when it's not what we desire.

7 And they brought the colt to Jesus and threw their garments on it, and He sat on it. 8 Many also spread their garments on the road, and others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road. 9 And those who went before and those who followed cried out, "Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! 10 Blessed is the coming kingdom of our father David! Hosanna in the highest!"

Mark 11:7-10

According to tradition, it is known as "Palm Sunday," but leaving aside questions of tradition, economics, etc. For the Jews, this was the day on which the lamb was selected and set aside for the sacrifice that would cover sin for a year. We remember that many years before, when the Jewish people were still slaves in Egypt, God had warned them that death would come at some point to afflict each household, and this would happen even if the family was not marked or righteous. But God at the same time provided a way out: all those who took refuge behind the blood of an innocent and spotless lamb would be saved and live.

For the blood of bulls and goats cannot take away sins.

Hebrews 10:4

That is why for many years the people of God presented themselves in the presence of God, offering sacrifices, praying and saying "save us," while the blood of an innocent and spotless lamb was shed. But we remember that the blood of all the animals that had been sacrificed could not purify the people from sin; they were covered from it, but never cleansed from sin.
Then came the great day when people celebrated a ruler of the land who they believed would break that suo that had them or pressured them like that in Rome, the Jewish people wanted freedom. But God in his highest and most sublime plans had a much more powerful freedom, the Jewish people believed they would choose a name but instead they were choosing a lamb, that lamb that would be sacrificed to take away the sin of the world.
