Once upon a time in a town called Jericho, there was a man named Zacchaeus. Zacchaeus was a tax collector and unfortunately, he wasn't very well-liked by the people in the town. Many thought he was unjust and charged too much money.
\n\n
One day, Zacchaeus heard that Jesus, a wise and kind man, was coming to Jericho. People said that Jesus taught about love, compassion, and the importance of changing and becoming better people. Zacchaeus felt curious and excited to see Jesus, but there was a problem: he was very short and couldn't see over the crowd that had gathered to see Jesus pass by.
\n\n
He decided to climb a tall tree, a sycamore tree, so he could see Jesus as he passed by on the road. Zacchaeus didn't care what people thought of him climbing the tree. He wanted to see Jesus, and that was all that mattered.
\n\n
When Jesus approached the tree, he looked up and saw Zacchaeus. Jesus smiled and said, "Zacchaeus, hurry and come down, for today I must stay at your house." Zacchaeus was amazed and excited. He quickly climbed down the tree and took Jesus to his house.
\n\n
The people murmured and complained that Jesus was staying at the house of a tax collector, someone they considered a sinner. But Zacchaeus was thrilled and grateful. He knew that Jesus had chosen him despite his past mistakes and misdeeds.
\n\n
At Zacchaeus's house, Jesus spoke with him about love, repentance, and the importance of doing good. Zacchaeus felt his heart fill with kindness and decided to change his ways. He promised to give back the money he had taken unjustly and to help those in need.
\n\n
Jesus told Zacchaeus, "Today salvation has come to this house." Zacchaeus felt blessed and grateful for the opportunity to change and become a better person.
