Persisting in Faith

Jesus answered, “It isn't right to take the children's food and throw it to the dogs.”  “That's true, sir,” she answered; “but even the dogs eat the leftovers that fall from their masters' table.”  So Jesus answered her, “You are a woman of great faith! What you want will be done for you.” And at that very moment her daughter was healed.
Matthew 15:26‭-‬28 GNBDK

Reflection:
Being an outsider the canonite woman shows what it is to persist in faith. But for many of us who are born into our faith, we tend to take matters of our faith for granted and have become lukewarm. Have you ever had a cups of lukewarm tea or coffee? Miracles are there for the taking, but we will only see them with our eyes of faith.

Prayer:
I pray that God our Father gives you the grace to persist in your faith as you walk in the path of the truth shown by Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour. And may his Holy Spirit guard and guide you along the way. Amen

God Bless you and your loved ones :)
