Faith and Trust
The Centurion
After Jesus had finished all his sayings in the
hearing of the people, he entered Capernaum. A centurion there had a slave whom
he valued highly, and who was ill and close to death. When he heard about
Jesus, he sent some Jewish elders to him, asking him to come and heal his
slave. When they came to Jesus, they appealed to him earnestly, saying,
"He is worthy of having you do this for him, for he loves our people, and
it is he who built our synagogue for us." And Jesus went with them, but
when he was not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to say to him,
"Lord, do not trouble yourself, for I am not worthy to have you come under
my roof; therefore I did not presume to come to you. But only speak the word,
and let my servant be healed. For I also am a man set 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 this he was amazed at him, and turning to the crowd that followed
him, he said, "I tell you, not even in Israel have I found such
faith." When those who had been sent returned to the house, they found the
slave in good health.

You may be deceived if you trust too much,
but you will live in torment
if you don't trust enough.
