Zacchaeus Was a Wee Little ManNäide

Day 1 – Wanting to See Jesus

📖 Verse:

“Jesus entered Jericho and was passing through.A man was there by the name of Zacchaeus; he was a chief tax collector and was wealthy. He wanted to see who Jesus was, but because he was short he could not see over the crowd. So he ran ahead and climbed a sycamore-fig tree to see him, since Jesus was coming that way.” — Luke 19:1-4

💡 Reflection:

Zacchaeus really wanted to see Jesus—so much that he climbed a tree just to catch a glimpse! When we want to know Jesus more, He always shows up. You don’t need to climb a tree—but you can pray, read the Bible, and sing to get closer to Him!
