The longer we live our sense of inadequacy piles up. The sermon on the mount sets the bar so high that none of us can come away feeling sufficient. Jesus requirements are impossible for us to meet. After the sermon on the mount the story of Jesus healing the leper illustrates Jesus willingness and desire to make us clean – despite our utter inadequacy. Matthew 8
