If Jesus were physically among us today, I'm not sure how those of us who are religious would react. The Lord’s interactions with people whom society generally considered to be sinners, as was the case for Zacchaeus, offended the religious. I do know, however, that many who regard themselves as living sinful lives are still excited to know they are actually welcomed by Jesus into his grace when they come to him. Those of us who have been in Christ a long time need to be re-awakened to the hunger that many lost people have for the Lord — oftentimes not knowing for whom they hunger. Let's help them find him by looking for those who are seeking to find him. Then, let's welcome them as Jesus welcomed recognized sinners during his days on earth.
