Peter’s Mother-in-law is Healed
The account of Jesus healing Peter’s mother-in-law is in three of the four gospels. Jesus had just left the synagogue in Capernaum and went to Peter and Andrew’s house. Luke’s account of this story said she was suffering from a high fever. Back in those days, one could die when being ill like that. Jesus went in, touched her hand and the fever left her. Immediately, she got up and began to wait on him.
When we’re sick, we are dependent on others to serve us. What a delight that once healed, she wanted to serve Jesus.
