" TLey tell Him of lier "— Mark i. 30. Jesus had entered into Simon's house, one of the few houses that welcomed Him. Have you welcomed Him into yours Z Have you until now had " no room for Him ?" Is He still standing at the door ? There was sickness in Simon's house— fever— and the disciples tell Him about it. If they had not told Him, I think He would have asked. He was quick to see trouble, " Why are ye sad, and why do thoughts arise in your hearts 1" " Why weepest thou 1" We often say, How are you 1 and never wait for any answer, lie listened, and having heard, did not look on helplessly as we so often do, but could and did help. The touch of that wonderful Hand was felt, and no common cure was the result. " If he sleep he shall do well," probably the most the relatives expected in such an illness, but " immediately," not only did the fever leave the suffering one, but strength was restored, and " he ministered unto them." He is the same to- day. He saya, " They that be whole need not the Physician, but they that are sick," and goes on to explain that by that saying He referred to the sickness of sin. Have you told Him your case 1 He has cured many as bad. Have you told him the cases of others 1 It is worth while, surely, if we remember that " the end of those things is death." The sickness is fatal, and onlv " now " is there any remedy. Tell Jesus always. Tell Him first. Tell Him only. Tell Him, however un- likely the cure may seem. " I poured out my complaint before Him ; I showed before Him my trouble." David complained to Him, not of Him, and having " told Him all things," had little need to tell others.
