“Zacchaeus, come down immediately. I must stay at your house today.”

 “Today salvation has come to this house, because this man, too, is a son of Abraham.10For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.”

 ‘Sir, here is your mina; I have kept it laid away in a piece of cloth.21I was afraid of you, because you are a hard man. You take out what you did not put in and reap what you did not sow.’

“I tell you,”he replied, “if they keep quiet, the stones will cry out.”

“If you, even you, had only known on this day what would bring you peace—but now it is hidden from your eyes.43The days will come upon you when your enemies will build an embankment against you and encircle you and hem you in on every side.44They will dash you to the ground, you and the children within your walls. They will not leave one stone on another, because you did not recognize the time of God’s coming to you.”

Lord God my Father,

I want to hear from you what Zacchaeus heard, ” I must stay at your house today” You are always saying this, I am just not ready to hear it. Make me ready and allow your will to overwhelm mine. Help me to be wise with what you trust me with so it will multiply. I want to live in constant praise no matter the situation and cry out your name at all times. Use me, here I am.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
