Sunday Sermon

When a centurion's servant lay sick and near death, the centurion sought out the Lord. Our Lord, moved with compassion, offered to go to the house of the centurion to heal the servant. The centurion moved with great humility and faith confessed his own unworthiness that the Lord even enter under his roof. He besought that the Lord simply "say the word," and the centurion was certain that by the simple word of the Lord that his servant would be healed. And so it came to pass: by the word of the Lord the servant was healed. The humble faith of the centurion is a challenge to us today: do we truly believe that our Lord can heal us by His divine word as well?
