But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped Him.
This man was eager. He had seen the Lord, even from a distance, and couldn’t get to Him fast enough. When you really see Jesus you too will be eager to fall at His feet in worship. Perhaps you’re so busy you didn’t even recognize the Lord. How thrilled the Lord must have been to see this man in our verse running to meet Him. How it thrills the Lord’s heart today to see His own gathered around Him for the purpose of worshipping Him. Let your heart overflow today as you meet with Jesus.
