Lord Jesus, for all the times I thought myself worthy to receive You when I was not, have mercy on me.
Lord Jesus, for all the times I judged others unworthy, have mercy on me.
Lord Jesus, for all the times I failed to intercede for others, in deed or in prayer, have mercy on me.
Lord Jesus, for all the times I wavered in my faith instead of putting my trust and faith in You. Have mercy on me.
Lord God Almighty, Father of bountiful love and mercy humbly I implore You. Be patient with your child, teach and guide me in Your ways, that I may lead others back to You in prayer, love, word and deed. Grant me the grace to ever grow in faith and love. Through Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with You in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God for ever and ever. Amen
GOSPEL
Luke 7:1–10
When Jesus had finished all his words to the people, he entered Capernaum. A centurion there had a slave who was ill and about to die, and he was valuable to him. When he heard about Jesus, he sent elders of the Jews to him, asking him to come and save the life of his slave. They approached Jesus and strongly urged him to come, saying, “He deserves to have you do this for him, for he loves our nation and he built the synagogue for us.” And Jesus went with them, but when he was only a short distance from the house, the centurion sent friends to tell him, “Lord, do not trouble yourself, for I am not worthy to have you enter under my roof. Therefore, I did not consider myself worthy to come to you; but say the word and let my servant be healed. For I too am a person subject to authority, with soldiers subject to me. And I say to one, Go, and he goes; and to another, Come here, and he comes; and to my slave, Do this, and he does it.” When Jesus heard this he was amazed at him and, turning, said to the crowd following him, “I tell you, not even in Israel have I found such faith.” When the messengers returned to the house, they found the slave in good health.
