Luke 8:46-48

But Jesus said, "Someone touched me; I know that power has gone out from me."

Then the woman, seeing that she could not go unnoticed, came trembling and fell at his feet. In the presence of all the people, she told why she had touched him and how she had been instantly healed. Then he said to her, "Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace."


I love this passage because it shows that God/Jesus knows exactly the intentions of our hearts. Even though so many people were touching Jesus, wanting to get something from Him, Jesus knew the bleeding woman had faith, and didn't let the woman's faith go unnoticed. He honors our heart, and His intention is to bless us. Not that we deserve much from our God, but He loves us, and gave Himself for us. Everything that we do for Jesus counts.
