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 the 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 work of God's messenger. He did so, and was cleansed.
Let us all beg God for the humility and grace to do the same.
