My name is Matthew.
I have always known numbers better than people. Numbers
make sense; they don't lie or twist themselves into knots like
human words. They stay where they are supposed to, fixed and
measurable. Unlike me.
You might know me as Levi, the tax collector. Or perhaps as
the one no one would touch, not even with a whispered prayer.
That's fair. I've been called many things in my life, most of
them true. But none of them prepared me for what happened
the day He called me.
I was sitting at my usual station on the road to Capernaum.
It was a day like any otheror so I thought. The sun blazed
overhead, baking the dust into a golden haze that clung to
everything. Merchants grumbled as they emptied their sacks
of grain and coins onto my table. I counted it all, meticulously,
ignoring their glares
