8. Jesus Heals Peter’s Mother-in-Law – Mark 1:29–31

Simon and Andrew tell Jesus about their mother’s illness. She was sick with a fever. In those days, without antibiotics and modern medicines, the illnesses that are often only a nuisance to us would kill many people. So this fever was a serious thing. Jesus goes in and takes her hand. Immediately, the fever leaves her. When you have a problem, do you do what Simon and Andrew did? Do you tell Jesus about it? When you do that, He touches you, and that’s when the blessing comes!
