The Lord remembers his covenant for ever.
Jesus the divine healer is at work. He starts with his most familiar environment - the home of Peter. He heals Peter's mother-in-law of her fever. It is significant that, she after being healed, took the initiative to serve Jesus and his friends.
Being anointed and healed is our baptism, we are made servants of the community. Our discipleship of Jesus makes us partners in his mission as servants of the Word and the community.
"Jesus never intended his Church to be a refrigerator in which to preserve perishable piety. He intended it to be an incubator in which to hatch converts" - F. Lincicome.
