"And he arose out of the synagogue, and entered into Simon's house. And Simon's wife's mother was taken with a great fever; and they besought him for her. And he stood over her, and rebuked the fever; and it left her: and immediately she arose and ministered unto them. Now when the sun was setting, all they that had any sick with divers diseases brought them unto him; and he laid his hands on every one of them, and healed them. And devils also came out of many, crying out, and saying, Thou art Christ the Son of God. And he rebuking them suffered them not to speak: for they knew that he was Christ. And when it was day, he departed and went into a desert place: and the people sought him, and came unto him, and stayed him, that he should not depart from them. And he said unto them, I must preach the kingdom of God to other cities also: for therefore am I sent. And he preached in the synagogues of Galilee."
In today's quote, after healing the mother-in-law of Simon, Jesus heals many others as He continues His Holy ministry.
The people of Capernaum wanted the comfort of having Jesus stay with them, just as most "Christians" would today, however, the people of Capernaum, just like many today, didn't then, and don't now realize that Jesus is always just a prayer away from those who have accepted His saving grace. He is always patiently waiting to fulfill our every need. His Holy Spirit is with us through everything we encounter in our lives.~
