Jesus cures many at Peter's house, beginning with Peter's mother-in-law. After having cured many, including driving out demons with a word, (i.e. Because Jesus' divine authority, He commands all things and creatures, including demons). From witnessing these miracles, some wish to follow him, but are they (and we) ready to give up everything to follow Jesus. Discipleship is not for the faint of heart. If we approach with humility and docility, Jesus will come to rest in our hearts.
