Jesus offers Zacchaeus an opportunity to walk with him in a new way. To stop seeking his own means and to do what is right, seek justice, encourage the oppressed, defend the cause of the fatherless and to plead the case of the widow. Walking with Jesus helps us see people as Jesus sees them and to offer hospitality as a witness to a loving God.

I won't let go. I won't give up. I won't stop pursuing.
