This miracle happened on a certain day, when a little man named Zacchaeus was told that Jesus soon would pass by his way with something more than gold. He was empty inside and sought to see who Jesus was, but He couldn't, so He ran before the crowd, and climbed a sycamore tree above the press, so that he might behold that blessed Savior with power to give him something more than gold.
In Mercy, the Redeemer came along his way and saw him up in the tree; Then calling to him, Jesus said, "Make haste Zacchaeus, come down, for today, I must abide at thy house." So he made haste, came down, and received Jesus joyfully, and soon Zacchaeus found that the half had not been told; the eternal blessing that Jesus brought to him that day was far better than gold. For the Son of man had come to seek and save that which was lost.
