The Centurion - Are you managing money God’s way?

This guy (Luke 7:1-10) had money and did good things with it, but he did not think that his money meant that he deserved anything. Money did not make him big up himself. He used it to serve others (he built the synagogue there in Capernaum), but also he did not expect something in return. In addition, this guy was a Roman centurion, so he had power as well, yet he understood that Jesus' authority was bigger than his. He respected Jesus. He knew that Jesus could heal long distance. Jesus need not be in the same place as the servant in order to heal him. How strong is God's authority in your life? Does it lead to an amazing faith? It should. Does it lead you to spend/save/invest/give money the way God prescribes?
