God showed great mercy this week. Our daughters' friend was diagnosed with cancer in her ovary. An 8 inch (22cm) tumor was removed and she was going to start Chemotherapy. It was advanced and did not look good.
But, we know and believe that the Lord is good and it is in His Power to take action if it is His Will. So we all prayed to Him who is able to Heal. The report is in - her cancer went from a stage 3 to a stage 1a with no need for Chemotherapy. The doctor was astonished because not having chemo was not even an option! We believe this was God's intervention and an answer to prayer!!
But the centurion replied, “Lord, I am not worthy to have you come under my roof, but only say the word, and my servant will be healed. For I too am a man under authority, with soldiers under me. And I say to one, ‘Go,’ and he goes, and to another, ‘Come,’ and he comes, and to my servant,‘Do this,’ and he does it.”
When Jesus heard this, he marveled and said to those who followed him, “Truly, I tell you, with no one in Israel have I found such faith. I tell you, many will come from east and west and recline at table with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven, while the sons of the kingdom will be thrown into the outer darkness. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”
And to the centurion Jesus said, “Go; let it be done for you as you have believed.” And the servant was healed at that very moment.

The Faith of a Centurion
When he had entered Capernaum, a centurion came forward to him, appealing to him, “Lord, my servant is lying paralyzed at home, suffering terribly.”And he said to him, “I will come and heal him.”But the centurion replied, “Lord, I am not worthy to have you come under my roof, but only say the word, and my servant will be healed. For I too am a man under authority, with soldiers under me. And I say to one, ‘Go,’ and he goes, and to another, ‘Come,’ and he comes, and to my servant,‘Do this,’ and he does it.”
