CLIMBING TREES for Jesus?! Luke 19:4 (S2-Episode #38)
99% of the time, Scripture does not mention the HEIGHT that a person stands off of the earth. Today, it does. Weird. Must be foundationally important to this character of Zacchaeus, or at least important to the story. That's where the tree climbing comes in. Our little hero not only runs, but he wants to "see who Jesus was" and so climbs a tree; a sycamore tree. Gotta love the details of this account.
Zacchaeus is all in for this day. His feet run. His will obeys. His heart receives joyfully. His pocketbook is opened. His evil ways of defrauding are repented of. His posture is to stand and make a resolution. In the end, the IMPOSSIBLE happens, a rich man is saved
Would you run to see who Jesus is? Would you climb a tree? Listen and let's consider this together.
