Call Me Blessed: The Canaanite Woman

Matthew 15:21-28⠀
⠀
“In this moment everything changes. Jesus delights in her perseverance, in her bold and striking public profession of faith. When he says, “Woman, great is your faith,“ he answers her prayer and sends her home to be with her daughter, who is now healed. He knew what she would say. He knew her heart before she knew her heart. He knew how bold her faith was, but he needed her to know how bold her faith was.” - Mary Lenaburg
