The Other Jesus, Week 3, Day 1

The Other Jesus, Week 3, Day 1

LUKE 15:1

 Jesus attracted struggling people. Why was this? He made himself available to them by seeking them out, as he did with Zacchaeus, in Luke 19:1-9. Struggling people usually keep a low profile, particularly if ostracized by others. The woman at the well drew water in the hottest part of the day. Zacheus climbed a tree. Sometimes this is a “self-imposed exile” or voluntary isolation. On other occasions it is forced, as with the lepers or the demoniac chained in the graveyard in Luke 8:26-37.

Do you attract strugglers? If not, why not?

Have you ever sought out a struggler or sufferer?

 FAMILY TIME

Pray that God will use your family to help someone who struggles.
