Jesus emphasizes the phrase "in my name" when refering to the miracle and giving a cup of water. What does it mean to do something in Jesus` name?
In Jesus name means in God's the Father's name aknowledging that the other in front of us is part of our family.Obeying those Commandments Jesus was sent to embody on earth.

How does Jesus define greatness, and is caring for a little child an example of greatness?
Ironically one could say that the disciples were behaving and got a scold like little children. They inmmediately went quiet after Jesus words. Jesus is talking about the simploicity of the child, who knows so little. And he is asking that he in his vulnerability and innocence will be accpeted with love and respect. He is placing him in the role of the father of the child like the Father sent him Jesus first as a fragile child who needed the protection of an elderly man and a young maiden. Simplicity of their minds but true followers of that message of love he was carrying in his very persona. I am the handmaid of the Lord Mary said and Jesus tells them to be servant offer themselves to that creature who is 'below' them for age gap and knowledge. They were sounding like dead cymbals.

The boy`s father said to Jesus, "I do believe; help my unbelief." How does Jesus respond to the father`s honest request for help with unbelief? What does this teach you?
very direct. How long ahs it been going for...what did you try to do...the father says the disciples could do nothing.But the Holy Spirit had not descended upon them yet. They have not been given that authority with which Jesus commands the evil spirit to leave the boy. But that same not authority but power in a way comes on the humbled father who prayed with a seed of faith to have the gift of faith. Not one of the chosen ones but anyone of us. that taught the disciples even about the vital importance of faith trust in Jesus: he can do all because he is the Son of God.There was a meraningful scene in the film Catholics (1973) where the Abbot says that in Lourdes, as yet then not approved, he felt saddened by all the lame and blind ..carried to the grotto for a miracle. He lost faith then why did not God grant them immediate healing? but the true healing he recieves is the spiritual one when his fountain of faith starts flowing again...just a few drops that feel like a full cascade (padre Gaultiero said to me one candle in a dark cellar sends more light than ten thousand in an illumined room) and he bears with renewd strenght that cross, having to say the Mass in the vernacular and not in Latin. He does not realise till he gets to the chapel, but it started sprouting agian the moment he accepts the decision of the priest from Rome not to accept his resignation.Jesus wants us to see, by talking to him directly and challenging him, that there is another greater miracle taking place. In the father of the boy. His Faith springing into life.
