John 8:  The centurion replied, “Lord, I do not deserve to have you come under my roof. But just say the word, and my servant will be healed."

Jesus heals all kinds of people in today's passages.  This is the one who stood out for me.  He doesn't want healing for himself, but for his servant.  He knows the power of God, b/c he doesn't ask Jesus to come over and heal the servant; he knows that physical presence isn't the necessary ingredient.  He has more faith than that--he knows Jesus can heal even when he is not physically present.

I know so many who need healing.  They need healing of mind and body; I know the power of prayer.  I pray for my friends and family.

Prayer:  Lord, guide Your healing hands towards those I care about.  Give them comfort, give them strength and endurance, be with them as they recover.  I know all that You can do, and I humbly beseech you in Jesus's name.
Amen

  1. In 2015, the list of those needing healing is still quite large. Praying for them all.
