What do you think the Centurion saw or experienced that made him recognize Jesus as the Son of God? Or, what have YOU seen or experienced that makes YOU recognize Jesus as the Son of God?

Jesus said, "into your hands I commit my spirit." Jesus knew that His Father would take care of Him, even though He was at the point of death.
