Did you ever wonder...

I have a cold right now. Stuffy head, scratchy throat, coughing... you the drill. UGH!

Driving into work this morning, as is my usual practice, I was meditating on Jesus and the Word when I started wondering... Did Jesus ever have a cold? That led to others and, well... here's some of the wondering (wandering) thoughts:

  • Did Jesus ever stub his toe?

  • Did Jesus ever tattle on his brother or sister?

  • Did he sooth the sore thumb of his earthly father Joseph when Joseph missed with his hammer?

  • Was he ever tempted to look to heaven when he had to clean up the workshop after a busy day of building?

  • Did Jesus ever have a hangnail? Did he just heal it?

  • Did Jesus ever have a bad hair day?

  • Did Jesus ever have a button fall off? Did he just touch it and it was sewn back on?

  • Did Jesus' sandal straps ever break? Did he tie them back together? Speak and new ones were in place of the old ones? Or did he just look up to heaven and the two pieces were one?

  • Did Jesus ever have an ingrown hair?

  • Did Jesus have any allergies?

  • When talking to someone and the sun was in his eyes was he tempted to produce a cloud to shield his eyes?

  • Did Jesus ever un-burn a burned meal?

  • Did he ever quietly correct the bad breath of someone to whom he was speaking?

  • Did Jesus brush his teeth somehow?


Wow... it goes on and on. Trust me no disrespect meant... but God with us... Immanuel offers some interesting wondering.
