AMAZED BY HIS FAITH!

AMAZED BY HIS FAITH!


Today we read about
The HUMBLE CENTURION=a man
With truly GREAT FAITH


Jesus was AMAZED
At this man's FAITH


The centurion said:
“Lord=I am NOT WORTHY
To have you
ENTER under my roof


Only say the WORD
And my servant
WILL BE HEALED” Matthew 8:8


I too am AMAZED
At the CENTURION'S FAITH=just
As Jesus was


This is the phrase
That EVERY Catholic says today=
BEFORE receiving the HOLY EUCHARIST
That is the KIND of FAITH
I want to HAVE TOO


I would LOVE for Jesus
To THINK that of my faith too
WOULDN'T YOU?


Jesus said about the CENTURION:
“Truly I tell you
I have NOT found anyone
In Israel
With such GREAT FAITH” Matthew 8:10


And to the centurion=
He said=”GO! Let it be done
Just as you BELIEVED
It would'


And his servant
Was HEALED at that moment” Matthew 8:13


YES=I am AMAZED
At the centurion's faith
JUST as Jesus was


Wouldn't you be PROUD
If Jesus was
AMAZED at your faith?


“This proposal=
PLEASED the whole group
They chose STEPHEN=
A man FULL of faith
And of the HOLY SPIRIT
…......” Acts 6:5


“Therefore the PROMISE
Comes by FAITH
So that it my be
By GRACE


And may be guaranteed
To all Abraham's offspring---------


NOT only to those
Who are of the law
But also


Those who have
The FAITH of Abraham=
He is=THE FATHER of us all” Romans 4:16


“I am REMINDED
Of your SINCERE FAITH


Which first lived
In your grandmother Lois
And in your mother Eunice


And I am persuaded
NOW LIVES in you also” 2 Timothy 1:5


Yes=let us all REMEMBER
With our FAITH


That Jesus comes into
Our LIVES=
And UNDER OUR ROOF


NOT because
We are worthy


But because we are
LOVED BY JESUS
And HIS HOLY FATHER


In the name of FAITH
In Jesus' name
