It's Personal

DAY 25 OF 35

We all make bad decisions sometimes, but we would never want those to define who we are or determine our entire reputation.  When Zacchaeus is introduced, we’re told about his biggest mistakes right away – he’s the chief tax collector, which means he climbed the ladder by stealing from people and giving it to the Roman government.  It says that he had become very rich, which means he was very good at his job and maybe took some extra for himself.  But Jesus still saw him, loved him, and chose him anyway.

Jesus saw past his mistakes and saw his heart, just like we would want Jesus to do for us. Read Zacchaeus’ story in Luke 19:1-9 and note how his life changed after his interaction with Jesus. How has your life changed because of Jesus?

About this Plan

It's Personal

We all have one thing in common: We want to be seen, known, and valued for who we are. We don’t want fake relationships; we want personal ones. In this 35-day devotional, we’ll be looking at Jesus and His interactions with a guy named Zacchaeus. We’ll see five ways Jesus made it personal and what that means for our lives.
