Most of this episode is about Simon and his desperation regarding his overwhelming debt. His wife asks him, “Where is your faith?” Simon had allowed his faith to take a backseat to his problems. He relied only on himself to fix his problems at all costs. Even when his brother Andrew told him about the Messiah, Simon only scoffed at the news. It took a miracle to get Simon’s attention. What does Jesus have to do to get your attention?
Reflection Questions: In what ways do you identify with Simon, trying to fix all of life’s problems yourself? When have been times you have allowed the world’s problems to inhibit your faith? What does Jesus have to do to get your attention?
