When Jesus entered Capernaum , a centurion
came to him, appealing to him and saying, “Lord, my servant is lying at home
paralyzed, in terrible distress.” And he said to him, ‘I will come and cure
him.”
The centurion answered, “Lord, I am not worthy to have you to come under my
roof; but only speak the word, and my servant will be healed. For I am also a
man under authority, with soldiers under me; and I say to one, ‘Go,’ and he
goes, and to another, ‘Come,’ and he comes, and to my slave, ‘Do this,’ and the
slave does it.”
When Jesus heard him, he was
amazed and said to those who followed him, “Truly I tell you, in no one in Israel have I
found such faith…
And to the centurion Jesus said, “Go; let it be
done for you according to your faith.”
And the servant
was healed in that hour. Matthew 8:5-13.
Amen.
