#214: Early Morning Questions

I've been thinking since about 5:05am. Here are a few ruminations for you:

Since Jesus "...Himself was tempted in that which He has suffered, He is able to come to the aid of those who are tempted," what carpentry mistakes did He make that might have been covered up but to which He owned up in order to come to my aid when similar things happen?

Did Solomon print out his Proverbs and put them on the bumpers of his chariot? Did his chariot have bumpers? Did Solomon get any of his fabulous wealth from selling chariot bumper stickers?

How calloused were Jesus' hands from all that carpentry He did? Did His hands ache at the end of the workday or was He still too young to deal with arthritis? What did He say when he got the inevitable splinters in His hands...or hit His thumb with a hammer?

Where's the balance in taking pride in your work...doing it "as unto the Lord" as Colossians 3:23 says...and pride going before a fall?

Would Jesus have had a Facebook profile? Would anyone have believed the statistics? What applications would He have put on it? How many Friends would He have? Could the Bible be considered Jesus' Facebook? Or would it be Face The Music Book?

Gotta go play with some prospective fire wood.
Got further questions?
