Sometimes it is hard to wrap our brains around the concept of unconditional love. We learn at a very young age that the acceptance and approval we long for often comes at a price. If we perform to a certain standard, we might receive the nurturing and loving responses that help us to like ourselves. We receive praise and admiration for behaving a certain way, for achieving certain goals, for saying the right thing, or for giving the right amount. It sometimes feels like the positive reinforcement we receive in life is attached to something; it is for some reason. This simple children's book asks whether God's love for us is based on all the "What Fors" we either put on ourselves, or the "What Fors" that are sometimes placed on us by others. This book asks, "What is the reason for God's love toward me?"
