PJP2 “7 PRAISES” - 16102327 - CLImE! CLImE - Christ Lives In me Eternally! I have always loved the story of Zacchaeus..... Luke 19:1-6, 9-10 (ESV/emphasis added/jaj)...."Jesus entered Jericho and was passing through. And Behold, there was a man named Zacchaeus. He was a chief tax collector and was rich. And he Was Seeking To See Who Jesus Was, BUT on account of the crowd he could not, Because he was small in stature. So he ran on ahead and CLIMBED up into a sycamore tree to See Him, for Jesus Was About To Pass That way. And when Jesus Came to the place, He LOOKED Up And Said to him, 'Zacchaeus, hurry and come down, for I Must Stay At your house Today.' So Zacchaeus hurried and came down and Received Him Joyfully. And Jesus Said to him, 'Today Salvation Has Come To This house, Since he Also Is a son of Abraham. For The Son Of Man Came To SEEK And To SAVE the lost.'”.... I know I will soon need to do a full PJP2 Entry just on this story - for today, though, suffice to say that I Hear His Holy Spirit Sharing that in Reality we can All Relate to Zacchaeus. In one way or another have we not all felt 'small in stature'? Have we not All, as well, been Curious to 'See Who Jesus Was'? Then there's God's Grace of ensuring Zacchaeus had a tree to climb. :) He is Still Providing His Grace for us as well. He is Still Ensuring by His Open Hand of Love that He Provides us Exactly What's needed, at Exactly His Perfect Timing. Thus, here is my overall Prayer for us Today.....2 Timothy 3:14-17 (ESV/emphasis added/jaj)...."BUT as for you, Continue In What you Have Learned And Have Firmly Believed, Knowing From Whom you Learned It and how from childhood you have been acquainted With The Sacred Writings, Which Are Able To Make you Wise For Salvation THROUGH FAITH In Christ Jesus. ALL Scripture Is Breathed Out By God And Profitable For Teaching, For Reproof, For Correction, And For Training In Righteousness, That the man of God May Be Complete, Equipped For Every Good Work."..... May God's WORD Speak to us and His Will Forever Be Done....Amen/Amen....jaj
