God has created our bodies in a wonderful way so that they can take care of themselves to an amazing degree. Did you ever think how great it is that cuts will heal, broken bones will grow back together, we will “get over” the flu or many other diseases, and so many more? But sometimes, the Bible says, we may really need to ask God in prayer for healing, when something comes along that our bodies can’t handle.
This week’s story is about a public official who came all the way from Capernaum, where he lived, to Cana, where Jesus was at the time, to ask Jesus to heal his sick son, who was close to dying. Jesus simply told him to go home, that his son would live. The official took Jesus at his word and, with no argument, went back home, where he was told that his son had recovered at the exact time his father had spoken to Jesus.
This happened early in Jesus’ ministry, before stories about His healing of so many people had spread through Israel. The Capernaum official simply believed that Jesus would do what He said He would do.
We need to trust God to know what is best for our sick friends, but we should also pray for them when they are sick. Come this Sunday to discuss with us how God heals people even today.
See you there, and…bring a friend!
Tom and Sydney Cook
