Reflect
What do these stories of healing teach you about Jesus? What surprised Jesus about the Roman officer (verse 10)? For what did Jesus commend the officer? In what ways does your community of faith care for those who are sick?
Pray
Gracious God, be with all people who are in need of healing today. Stretch forth your loving and healing hand, surround them with your peaceful presence, and ease their pain and suffering. Amen.

Those who are hospitalized
