A Canaanite woman from that
region came out and started shouting, “Have mercy on me, Lord, Son of David; my
daughter is tormented by a demon.” But he did not answer her at all.
And his disciples came and
urged him, saying, “Send her away, for she keeps shouting after us.”
He answered, “I was sent only
to the lost sheep of the house of Israel
But she came and knelt before
him, saying, “Lord, help me.”
He answered, “It is not fair
to take the children’s food and throw it to the dogs.”
She said, “Yes, Lord, yet
even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their master’s table.”
Than Jesus answered her,
“Woman, great is your faith! Let it be done for you as
you wish.”
And her
daughter was healed instantly. Matthew 15:22-28.
Amen.
