Our Scripture reading today is Luke 19:10, "For the Son of man is to come to seek and to save that which was lost."
The Lord Jesus Christ mission for coming to Earth is given to us in this one verse of Scripture. He left the glories of Heaven to live amongst sinful men and women. Jesus Christ was motivated by love. A love for His Father and a love for sinners like you and me. He came to save men like Zacchaeus. Zacchaeus was seeking Jesus as a result of Jesus seeking him first.
Our world is filled with people like Zacchaeus today. They might be religious, but they are still lost. The Lord is seeking to save them. Sins penalty was paid in full at Calvary. All that is needed is for sinful men and women to turn from their unbelief and believe the Word of God. Acts 16:31, "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house." I am thankful that He came to seek and save me! Are you saved? If so, have you thanked Jesus recently?
