—Matthew 15:21-28
by: Katie Brown.
Jesus was moved by the Canaanite mother’s bold faith and He healed her daughter instantly. As children of God, we also have the ability to come to God directly in our times of need. How often do we come to God in prayer with this kind of determination? Are there areas in our lives where we need healing? Do we faithfully lay down our requests at God’s feet? Too often, we fall back on our prideful instincts to try to solve our own problems. But God is looking for us to cry out, “Lord help me,” and to believe that He will hear and answer.
