For the 24th day of October 2013



10/24/13

Luk 7:6  And Jesus went with them. When he was not far from the house, the centurion sent friends, saying to him, "Lord, do not trouble yourself, for I am not worthy to have you come under my roof.
Luk 7:7  Therefore I did not presume to come to you. But say the word, and let my servant be healed.

The attitude that the centurion officer had of himself is even more impressive than the fact that he built a synagogue for them. He is not thinking that he deserves anything, instead he says, "Lord, do not trouble yourself, for I am not worthy to have you come under my roof.” He knew that God’s blessings was out of God’s grace not out of his (the centurion’s) own merits.
