Religion & Spirituality:Christianity
Zacchaeus was a man made wealthy for selling himself out to the oppressors of his own people. He was a man who was completely motivated by money and living for what he wanted, until Jesus called his name.
When we recognize in our own lives we are prideful and selfish at best, we can begin to see how much transformation is truly needed in our hearts. We are unable to bring true change to ourselves because we are motivated by things that appeal to us. Following Christ goes against our very nature because we have to lay down the things of the world that we so tightly cling to.
Just as Zacchaeus learned, Jesus loves every person. He wants to redeem our hearts so we are able to see and desire His truth above anything the world can offer. When our eyes are focused on Christ and His calling in our lives, our pride has a difficult time taking the lead.
Luke 19:1-10; Luke 4:16-21
