the little man

last Friday i went to the Ramp. Damon Thompson spoke on Luke 19:1-10.
The story of Zacchaeus has a new meaning after i heard Damon speak.
he spoke on how zacchaeus was a short man who was willing to climb a tree just to physically see what Jesus looked like. Damon mentioned how we need to be able to run after God but also go vertical to a new level. he also spoke on being equally yoked. we all use the analogy with the oxen yoked with marriage but he used it for that but as well as being yoked to those around you who are running towards God just as much as you are. it was really cool because the marriage analogy is overdone. (at least that is what i think). we need to be around those who will challenge you and really dedicated to knowing God.

there was more that he spoke on...

the Lord really wanted me to hear that because I was at a lady's house that morning and we were talking about Luke 19 for Sunday. so it was good for me to hear. it was a challenge for me to stop being complacent & go after Him with everything i have again. returning to my first love again.
