As we look at this event in Luke 4: 38-39 , we find that Christ is in Simon’s home. It also happens to be that Simon’s mother-in-law has a fever. The family appeals to Christ for this woman and Christ healed her of her illness. The response of Simon’s mother-in-law is intriguing. Scripture says “and immediately she rose and began to serve them.” Wow! What can we learn from her response to this God-ordained situation? We can certainly see the emphasis that God’s grace is to be followed by gratitude and service. Her thankfulness to the Lord was shown in her response of service to Him AND to the others.
