"If the prophet had told you to do something extraordinary, would you not have done it?" --2 Kings 5:13

We, like Naaman, are prone to expecting God to work in extravagant ways befitting our own views of His majesty. And so, we miss His smaller directives through which He intends miracles! We must listen closely and learn obedience so that we let Him work in His majesty that allows Him to work miracles from a simple washing. Is not the God who can with a whisper change the human heart more majestic than a God reliant on stars shooting fire? It is like in confession. We must not expect large penances in accordance to our sins--nothing we do can remove them from us. We must then humble ourselves, and accept and trust in God's mercy, "Wash and be clean."
