“Lord, I am not worthy to have you come under my roof; but only speak the word, and my servant will be healed”
Matthew 8:5-17
My main mantras are “Divine Order” and “it’s at the foot of the Cross” with the belief that Jesus will attend to my request, similar to how the Centurion made his. He had the faith, trust and belief that Jesus will do as he asked, despite who he was.
What is the healing we desire from Jesus? Do we always have the centurion’s depth of faith? If we ask Jesus to heal us, do we trust that healing will take place? The healing may not be an immediate miracle nor take place in a manner or the timing that we hope for. However, this does not mean that Jesus is not at work in us.
Let us pray that we may never lose that gift of faith which has, in the mysterious ways of divine Providence, been given to us. Let us remember that, without Faith, God will be hampered in reaching out his healing love to us.
