I shouldn't think so, he's been dead 2000 years.
But I'm sure if you believe in jesus he can grant comfort

Oh good!
For my first wish, I wish that people didn't present beliefs as definitive fact.

I looked at the Wiki article you linked to, but found nothing saying Jesus can grant wishes, only mention of people praying for wishes to be granted. Maybe I missed something. Can you direct me to the part of the article that says what you say it says?Jesus can grant wishes! Wish - Wikipedia

Here it is?
Religion[edit]
In Christianity, especially among Roman Catholic, Lutheran and Anglican denominations, believers pray novenas to request a favour they wish to obtain.[2]Frank Goad

Psalm 145:15-17 This should things in focus.But in stead of jesus it is god.
Not really…. He is still alive.
But we understand that the Gospel is not just factual but true.
I really can’t agree with the wording or even this process of novenas although God wants to answer prayers. We have to take all of the Bible to balance a thought such as:
James 4:3
AMP
You ask [God for something] and do not receive it, because you ask with wrong motives [out of selfishness or with an unrighteous agenda], so that [when you get what you want] you may spend it on your [hedonistic] desires.

The sentence doesn’t say Jesus can grant wishes. It simply says that believers pray for their wishes to be realized.
No "we" don't.
Try it and report back here.
It also doesn't mention who they're praying to. It could be the Virgin Mary or the Holy Spirit for all we know.

I'll have to go out, in the cold, across town to buy a crucifix. This was supposed to be a lazy day.Try it and report back here.
You could save a few dollars and just stop by a Catholic Church or hospital...
...and wait 'til spring.
LOL… but “we” Christians do.

I wish the same thing. I hope it works. My second wish is that people didn't proselytize and preach about their religious beliefs.
And your 3rd wish is that every other wish you make will come true ;-)
