What's the Luke Challenge?
The Luke Challenge is a 24-day journey through the Gospel of Luke to prepare our hearts for Christmas. We invite you to read 1 chapter of Luke with us daily from December 1st to Christmas Eve.
For the Son of Man has come to seek and to save the lost. - Luke 19:10 (HCSB)
Day 19 Takeaway
Have you ever been the subject of someone else’s gossip? Have you ever heard rumors about yourself? Today’s challenge introduces Zacchaeus, a notorious sinner. Even if the rumors about him were true, Jesus still went to his house and brought salvation.
Today I encourage you to climb the tree (metaphorically), get up higher than the words that others say about you - higher than what you say about yourself. Get up higher than the mistakes you’ve made. Look beyond where you have been and see that the Savior is seeking you. Keep climbing... you are exactly who He seeks and wants to save.
