Matthew 8:9 - For I am a man with authority with soldiers under me. I say to this one, "Go" and he goes. And to that one, "Come" and he comes or to my servant, "Do this" and he does it.
Authority. Jesus had authority over sickness, demons, sin and ultimately death. Jesus the Christ, still has authority over these things. The centurion recognizes authority in others and thus he has faith that Jesus can heal his servant.
As I am in a hotel room on the way to Cleveland I will think today about what I give Jesus authority over in my life today. Is there something I need to let go of? Something that he can heal but that I am still holding on to? I will be aware of what I am holding back today.
