Have you ever wished that someone could look past all the exterior things of your life and see you as you really are?
Luke 19 tells a wonderful story about a man named Zacchaeus, a tax collector for the Roman government. But the Romans were the enemies of Zacchaeus’s people. So, even though working for the Romans had made him a wealthy man, because of his choice of profession he was judged to be a sinner. One day, Zacchaeus heard that Jesus of Nazareth was passing through Jericho. He sincerely desired to see Jesus, but Zacchaeus was a short man. Zacchaeus looked around, saw a sycamore tree, and decided to climb it.
When Jesus passed beneath Zacchaeus’s hiding place, he stopped and called up to him, saying: “Zacchaeus, make haste, and come down; for today I must abide at thy house.”
When the people in the crowd heard this, they were shocked. Didn’t this man, who was supposed to be a prophet, know Zacchaeus was a sinner?
As soon as Zacchaeus was down from the tree, he felt a need to account for himself. “Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor: and if I have taken anything from any man by false accusation, I restore him fourfold,” he said.
Jesus’ answer to him was full of tender assurance. “This day is salvation come to this house, forasmuch as he is also as a son of Abraham.”
Saron E. Eubank, who served in the Relief Society General Presidency in 2019, said, ” …When Jesus saw the goodness of Zacchaeus’s heart and the things he did for others, He accepted his offering.”
It is an unwavering requirement of Christian disciples and Latter-day Saints to show true love to one another. Jesus extends the same kind of invitation to us that He did to Zacchaeus: “ Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if (you) hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to (you), and will sup with (you) and (you) with me.’”
This image is a reminder that Christ truly does see us, just as we are, even when we are hidden in a tree.
