Head: Know God’s Word | Heart: Love God | Hands: Follow God’s Way

Read Luke 8:40-48


Head

In this very short part of scripture, Jesus meets two very important needs. He meets the needs of a woman dealing with sickness, and He heals the daughter of a very sad father. Jesus wants us to know that when we come to Him, believing in Him, He can do miracles for us. Jesus tells the woman with the sickness that He has healed her because of her faith that He could do that. He works a miracle for the father of the dying girl and brings her back to life.


Heart

Jesus wants us to bring our needs to Him because He loves us and cares for us! When we’re overwhelmed or feeling hopeless, He tells us to bring our burdens to Him (Matthew 11:28-30).


Hands

What are some ways that you need Jesus to help in your family or your life? What needs can you bring to Jesus today? Discuss those needs as a family and pray together, asking and believing that Jesus will meet those needs according to His perfect plan for us.

Prayer: Dear Jesus, thank You so much for working miracles in our lives. Help us to stop and notice all the small ways you care for us and our families and us. Lord, You are a good, good Father, and we are so thankful for Your loving care that You pour out over us every single day. Amen.
