Today’s Gospel (LK 19:1-10), we see how Zacchaeus who was a chief tax collector of the city of Jericho, he was hated by everyone in the city because he overtaxed the people.
The most important part of the story is the transformation that happens to Zacchaeus after encountering with Jesus. His determination to see Jesus made him to a sincere conversion.
For Zacchaeus, the day ended with a changed life. He had his sins forgiven. He experienced friendship with Jesus and peace with God.
This story pursues each one of us to bring us into a loving personal relationship with God and in doing so, to change our entire life for the better. We should do everything possible to find a way around all obstacles and overcome all spiritual handicaps.
We need to allow Jesus to come into our heart and life and surely he will save us.
Today is day of salvation. Let us know that it is never too late to accept Jesus Christ as our Saviour and Lord.
“I will bless your name forever, O God my King.” (Ps 144).
