2 There [in Capernaum] a centurion’s servant, whom his master valued highly, was sick and about to die. 3 The centurion heard of Jesus and sent some elders of the Jews to him, asking him to come and heal his servant. 4 When they came to Jesus, they pleaded earnestly with him, “This man deserves to have you do this, 5 because he loves our nation and has built our synagogue.” – Luke 7:2-5
The people of Capernaum (in Northern Israel by the Sea of Galilee) were blessed with a Roman soldier who valued their culture, respected their faith and built their synagogue. Clearly this soldier has a deep commitment to and love for the people to whom he has been sent. As we observe Veterans Day today, it is important to give thanks to God for the women and men, who throughout the history of the United States have faithfully served our nation by defending our safety, and showing the world a courage, care and kindness that embody the very best of who we are as one nation under God. Thanks be to God for our veterans!
Affectionately,
Pastor Ric
