St. Joseph of Arimathea and St. Nicodemus

After Jesus left the synagogue, he entered the house of Simon. Simon's mother-in-law was afflicted with a severe fever, and they interceded with him about her. He stood over her, rebuked the fever, and it left her. She got up immediately and waited on them (Luke 4: 38-39).

Jesus was always doing good, serving, helping others. Everywhere He went He made the world a better place. Let’s strive to be just like Jesus.

Lord, I want to follow Your example.
