July 2: Jesus and Zacchaeus
Bible Passage: Luke 19:1-10
Bottom Line: I can choose the door that leads to Jesus
Leader Context: Most everyone has dealt with rejection, even Zacchaeus. Jesus did not see Zacchaeus as the cheat and liar the rest of the town saw in him. He saw him and loved him. Zacchaeus chose to love Jesus in return for the love that He had shown him. He turned from his old life of sin and emptiness and turned to a life full in Christ. We can choose to ignore the emptiness of the world and the lies we believe when we choose to love Christ and be reminded of who we are in Him.
