Father Anthony reflects on the story of Zacchaeus, showing how a single moment of openness can transform an entire life. He reveals how Jesus seeks out the lost—not to condemn them, but to call them down from their hiding places and into friendship with God. Zacchaeus’s joyful response becomes a powerful reminder that conversion begins the moment we let Christ step into our home, our habits, and our heart.

Father Anthony encourages us to cry out to God and let out our tears in prayer, always keeping our eyes on the Lord.
