“And when the centurion, who stood there in front of Jesus, saw how he died, he said, “Surely this man was the Son of God!”” Mark 15:39 NIV
It isn’t easy to come to faith. For someone to make a claim such as “this person is the Son of God” isn’t something anyone says regularly.
Millions of dollars are given in charity every year. Perhaps many more are spent in faith promotional material. All with the hope the recipients would catch a glimpse of God and make a similar faith claim.
This Roman centurion saw HOW Jesus died... and believed. This Roman centurion probably has seen many people died, but none like Jesus died. It isn’t about WHAT we are going through but HOW we go about it.
Let us pray to use any situation to give testimony of a higher calling. Everybody is going through this pandemic, everybody is taking a hit, but would anyone come to faith simply by watching how we are suffering?
