From Our Founder
Let us learn from Naaman the Syrian: He was full of scorn and doubt when
the prophet told him to bathe his leprosy in little Jordan, whereas he was
familiar with the noble Tigris and Euphrates. But he was not asked to
compare the splendor of the river, but to obey the word which God spoke
through His prophet. His little maidservant prevailed on him to bend his
pride, and put his trust in the word of God’s messenger. He did so, and was
cleansed.
Let us all beg God for the humility and grace to do the same.
