What kind of faith makes Jesus marvel?
This last Sunday we read from Luke 7v1-10 the story of the Roman centurion seeking Jesus out for a miracle.
Here we have a Gentile who has grasped a kingdom concept before many Israelites had. The centurion sees Jesus as a warrior king, as the highest ranking official in all of creation. So much so that sickness and death yield, demons flee, and storms cease at His word. He understands there’s nothing he could do to earn or deserve the mercy of this king, yet he still approaches Him in boldness on behalf of his sick servant.
And Jesus marvels.
May we be the people who take Jesus at His word, and in humility approach our merciful King to see the impossible on this side of heaven.
