Matthew 15:21-28:
Jesus rebuffs this gentile woman. His mission thus far has been to the children of Israel. Her persistence and remarkable faith cause him to listen to her and grant her appeal to him to heal her daughter. This is indicative of the widening of Jesus’ mission to include all people.
You are the Creator, the Redeemer and the Sanctifier of all people. We pray that those who do not know you, do not believe, come to know your love.
