Man is SO Blessed!

Matthew 12:1-21

Inspired thots:

The Lord's heart is always for Man. But the same cannot be said of Man for the Lord... how sad!

1) Jesus cares for every need of man that everything is permissible to satisfy man, breaking even traditions and laws.
  • If you are hungry, eat and be full. (v1)
  • If you are sick, be healed. (v13)

2) Again, Jesus reiterated, "Mercy,... not sacrifice" (v7; 9:13)

  • A bruised reed He will not break
  • A smoldering wick He will not snuff out (v20)

How kind Jesus is... He knows how weak we already are, and He will not cause us more suffering or shame by condemning us.

3) How reassuring this phrase from Jesus ~ "How much more valuable is a man than a sheep!" (v12)
