Monday 28 November 2016
‘Do this,’ and he does it.” It is just this simple !
My Lord, I would like to be Your child who pays attention to You, obedient, fast , precise , successful to do all that Your Holy Majesty asks , expects from me!! I would like Your holy will to be my daily nourishment !!
With love,
Father Csaba
translated by dr k.e.
When Jesus entered Capernaum, a centurion approached him and appealed to him, saying, “Lord, my servant is lying at home paralyzed, suffering dreadfully.”
He said to him, “I will come and cure him.”
The centurion said in reply, “Lord, I am not worthy to have you enter under my roof; only say the word and my servant will be healed.
For I too am a man subject to authority, with soldiers subject to me.
And I say to one, ‘Go,’ and he goes; and to another, ‘Come here,’ and he comes; and to my slave, ‘Do this,’ and he does it.”
When Jesus heard this, he was amazed and said to those following him, “Amen, I say to you, in no one in Israel have I found such faith.
I say to you, many will come from the east and the west, and will recline with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob at the banquet in the Kingdom of heaven.”
Matthew 8, 5-11
