When I was young we loved to play "hide and seek". We would always find new places to hide but we were always found unless we made it "home free".
Luke states the theme of his Gospel in 19:10 where he says, " For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.”
In chapters 1 - 3 we have the coming of Jesus. In 4 - 21 we see Him seeking and finally in 22 - 24 we see what He did for the lost.
Unlike in hide and seek we do not know we are lost and we certainly weren't expecting to be found. However, we are lost and as we turn our eyes to Jesus we will see that we need a Saviour, One who came seeking us while we were still lost.
