God Is ... Through MatthewSample

God is . . . Unconditional

“Dear woman,” Jesus said to her, “your faith is great. Your request is granted.” And her daughter was instantly healed. Matthew 15:28 NLT

God knows your heart. He sees through your exact circumstances, past your money and status in the world, right into your core. That’s where He meets you! He loves you all the way through your situation.

Surely the woman in this story had heard great and wonderful things about the power of Jesus. She may have heard reports that all who came to Him were healed and that He had the authority to cast out demons — if she believed.

So, this woman heard. She acted. She received. She was healed immediately. Jesus didn’t ask her for her progress report first. He didn’t even ask her about her past sins or if she had unforgiveness in her heart. No — she believed, so she received. His love is unconditional; He gives it freely.

What have you heard about that you need to act on? Is something holding you back from doing so? Are you trying to get your act together before you come to Jesus? There’s good news: His love is unconditional! Believe and reach out to Him today just as this woman did.

Prayer:

Father, thank You! As I sit at Your feet with my weary head in Your lap, Your love rushes over me and lulls me to sleep. Your unconditional, unquestioning, never-exhausted love brings security and peace to my soul. Amen in Jesus’ name.
