Lord God,

You showed us today another model to faith. That you listen and answer to the prayers of someone who truly trusts and believes in you. That you are not after the social status of the person, but rather, you are after our humble and contrite heart. Like the centurion, we may also learn how to entrust all our worries and afflictions unto you. We ask this through our Lord Jesus, your Son, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, One God, forever and ever.

Amen.

Fr. Edgar Benedi-an, OSM
