Genesis 23:1-24:51

  • Grace given to a mourning man.  When have you experienced a beautiful grace from others?
  • The servant - praying for finding Isaac's wife.  How often do I/you/we pray for the every day things that we need?  
  • How do we interpret everyday moments?

Matthew 8:1-17

  • Healings, Healings, Healings - notice what is in common in these healing stories and what is different.  Notice who is being healed and how.  
  • Faith - Greek word pistis - root is more about trust than a religious "faith"
  • Re-read the story of the Centurion using the word trust instead of faith
  • Imagine the line of people waiting to be healed.  

Psalm 9 and Proverbs 2:23-3:6

  • Psalm 9 - See yesterday...
  • Proverbs 2:16-3:6 - A Native American translation of Proverbs talks about following God's good road.  What does that sound like to you?
