Jesus and a Bruised Reed

Sermon Application Questions:

1. Reread Matthew 12:9-22. What about Jesus from this passage makes you most drawn to him?

2. Do you see yourself as a “bruised reed”? And do you see yourself that way not as a matter of self-pity but as a matter of objective reality?

3. It’s one thing for Jesus to perform a relatively small miracle. It’s another thing for him to set all things right in the world, which he has promised to do. Do you feel like your focus is more on small things you’d like Jesus to do for you or the grand thing that Jesus is doing in the world and in your life?
