Contemplation (verse 29-31)
I wish you to notice the power of His body. When it touches someone, it wipes away every sickness and infirmity, defeats the devil and his collaborators, and heals crowds of people in a glimpse of time. Although Christ could have conducted miracles with only a word, He “took her by the hand” to teach us that the holy body He took as His temple had the power of the Divine Word. May God, the Word bind us to Him; and may we bind to Him by the mysterious communion of His body, so that the soul could be healed of its infirmities and prevail over the attacks and hostilities of the devils
+ St Cyril the Great

Personal Reflection
Christ took Peter’s mother-in-law by the hand to heal her… His touch healed her… do I take it for granted when I approach and touch/taste His Body? 

Bible Knowledge Question
What did Jesus say to Peter and Andrew, and what was their response?

Prayer
Lord, please teach me how to leave worldly things behind and follow You like Peter and Andrew.
