SABRINA

Almost everyone knows the story of Zacchaeus, the small
tax collector, who climbed the tree to see Jesus as he
passed.  Many sermons and studies have focused on the
passage.  Sometimes from the point of Jesus, sometimes
from Zacchaeus, or those around.  But what about the
sycamore?  The tree was there, ready to be used as a
higher point allowing Zacchaeus to be lifted up ­ A point of
stability in chaos. The tree allowed Zacchaeus the
opportunity to SEE Jesus.  Are we a Sycamore to others,
offering stability and strength­allowing others to see Jesus
more clearly­ perhaps on a day when others may be
passing judgments, much like the people did to Zacchaeus
on that day?

Let us go today and be a sycamore, lifting someone higher,
offering stability, allowing them to see Jesus a little better!
Have a blessed day.
