Amazing Faith
One of the great joys of reading the gospels is reading about the everyday, struggling people who meet Jesus and have their lives so radically changed by him. Last week, we saw the powerful transformation of a man who was almost totally destroyed by demon-possession. This week, we see the powerful healing of the servant of a centurion (a Gentile, just like us). But the amazing healing itself is almost dwarfed by Jesus’ own testimony of ‘amazing faith’. It causes us to sit up and think about what lessons we can learn for our own faith.
