In the gospel according to St Luke 19:1-8, there was a recognised man named Zacchaeus who sought and found Jesus. Zacchaeus had a single connection (seeing, encounter) with Jesus and his lifestyle was immediately changed from a ‘grabber’ to a ‘transformed giver’. This particular story focused on Jesus, and what an encounter with Jesus can do to your life.
You and I are today’s Zacchaeus; sinners seeking to see Jesus. Obviously, Zacchaeus recognised the authority and power in the name of Jesus. Therefore, he sought to see Jesus against all odds. So, do you also yearn like Zacchaeus to see Jesus? Can you say ‘if only I can see Jesus ‘? 3 He wanted to see who Jesus was, but because he was short he could not see over the crowd. 4 So he ran ahead and climbed a sycamore-fig tree to see him, since Jesus was coming that way. Luke 19:3-4
From this moment, please let your heart be also made up:
