The Methodist Church Scartho

As we continue to move through Lent we can focus how Jesus reached people from various backgrounds, no one was and is beyond his reach.

A man called Zaccheus who was a chief tax collector in Jericho, not liked by many, wanted to see this Jesus everyone was speaking about. His problem was that he was small in stature so he climbed up a tree to get a better view.

As Jesus passed by, he acknowledged Zaccheus and called for him to come down as he wanted to stay at his house that day.

Bystanders commented about him wanting to associate with a tax collector but Jesus saw Zaccheus needed to know him as much as the others who came to Jesus.

After his encounter with Jesus, changed his view on his life and situation.

People can still meet Jesus today and have their live changed today.
