Welcome to my House, Jesus - I'm a Sinner

Scripture: 5When Jesus reached the spot, he looked up and said to him, "Zacchaeus, come down immediately. I must stay at your house today." 6So he came down at once and welcomed him gladly.
7All the people saw this and began to mutter, "He has gone to be the guest of a 'sinner.' "

Luke 19:5-7

Observation: Even though we are believers, we are all still sinners. Despite who we are, the Holy Spirit has come to “stay in our house” so to speak.

Application: The Son of Man came to seek and to save what was lost. We can’t forget that. We shouldn’t judge people based on what they do or what they have done. Christ set this example for us.

Prayer: God – you saved me and You forgive me of my sins. Thank You for loving me! Help me to remember not to judge people and to follow the example that You set.
