And he (Jesus) 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.
---- mine,
Bring all your loved ones to Me, those you are worried about, anxious for, those whose lives trouble you, those you pray for unceasingly for their well-being, and that they may be faithful to Me after their conversion. I hear you and just as the disciples told Me that Peter's mother-in-law was ill with a fever, and I went to her, stood over her, and rebuked the fever to leave her, so will I do for you. The fever left her immediately, and she rose at once from her bed and began to serve. Remember, your life is not your own; it is given so you can spend it in loving service to others. Just as I, the Son of Man, came not to be served but to serve and to give My Life as a ransom for many, so too must you live your life for others. All you ask for in prayer will be given to you. Continue to bring the needs of those you love to Me, and not just their needs but those of the community, the Curch and the world. Pray, hope, and trust that in time, I will hear and I will answer all your prayers. Do not grow discouraged if you have to wait for an answer, but while you wait, remain in My love as a weaned child on its mother's lap. At a time of My choosing, deliverance will come. Do not grow weary of praying, do not lose heart, persevere, and all you have asked for and more will be given to you.
