There is a ton of great theology found in the book of Matthew. Chapter 8, however, is especially intriguing. There is an underlying theme here that can easily be missed if you don't take time to dissect and study and pray about it.
For this week, I'm going to keep the little "contest" going from our last reading. This one isn't a trick, however. I'm not trying to trip you all up! :)
Read the passage, pray about it, and try to really grasp what is happening here. We will talk about it Sunday morning. Remember, this is not just for the people who are playing and singing this week. Everyone on the Worship team is invited to join us for our discussion. Whoever comes up with the answer to the mystery gets a $10 itunes gift card. If no one does, we'll save it for the next one. We may even start allowing the total to accumulate, if no one gets it this week!
Matthew Chapter 8.... have fun!

We look at it as such a miracle that Jesus HEALED all of them of their problems and took away what ailed them. We see it as such a lesser thing that He healed all of us of our sickness and took away our sins that plagued us. When you think about it, our bodies are so much less important than our hearts/minds. Our bodies will disintegrate, but our souls are forever. And there is only one doctor.
