Healing a Nobleman's Son ~
A nobleman approaches Jesus in Cana & asks Him to come to Capernaum to heal his son. Jesus heals the boy from where He stands - 16 miles away. This sign once again shows Jesus' power & authority, yet there is another issue that I think we should focus on.
Jesus says, "Unless you people see signs and wonders, you simply will not believe." Yet, He healed the man's son. So what is going on? It's all about believe' & faith that God knows what He is doing. It's not about your way, it's all about His way. Signs and wonders will not bring about life change. They will get your attention, but you can't simply live on miracles. Your faith & reliance will begin to depend on the act instead of on God. Jesus healed the boy from a distance & the father simply needed to believe it on Jesus' word alone.
Always remember, it's not about what happens, it's about your faith. Do you trust Jesus? Or does it need to be your way? Can you pray for your need & trust that they will be taken care of according to God's good plan or do you demand your way? God is wisdom & knowledge. Do you believe it?
