We may still, by faithful and fervent prayer, apply to Christ, and ought to do so when sickness is in our families.

Our Lord Jesus was pleased with the centurion's faith; and he never fails to answer the expectations of that faith which honours his power and love. The cure soon wrought and perfect.
