Commentary: Matthew 8:5-11

Lord, I am not worthy to have you enter under my roof; only say the word and my servant will be healed.

Jesus, as I prepare for your coming at Christmas, I know that I am not ready for your arrival. I know that I need your help though, just like the centurion. As I buy and wrap presents, bake cookies and decorate, I want to whisper “for you Jesus.” Help me purify my intentions so that my preparations are really helping my family welcome you.
