This short story seems to teach a very simple lesson- 'it's good to help people'. But much more than that, it tells us something important and amazing about the character of God who designed the Sabbath- 'He is good'.

It also tells us something the way people can sometimes be- stubborn, prideful and thinking that we have the best understanding... sadly, this often leads to more pain and suffering in the world!

This story can help us to reflect on any wrong ways of thinking we may have- about God and other people. There are two possible responses to this challenge: 'walk away angry' or 'stay and be changed'.

Text:

"Another time Jesus went into the synagogue, and a man with a shriveled hand was there. Some of them were looking for a reason to accuse Jesus, so they watched him closely to see if he would heal him on the Sabbath. Jesus said to the man with the shriveled hand, “Stand up in front of everyone.” Then Jesus asked them, “Which is lawful on the Sabbath: to do good or to do evil, to save life or to kill?” But they remained silent. He looked around at them in anger and, deeply distressed at their stubborn hearts, said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” He stretched it out, and his hand was completely restored. Then the Pharisees went out and began to plot with the Herodians how they might kill Jesus."
