Reflections
GOSPEL:
Matthew 15:21-28
In the gospel reading, Jesus
meets up with a very determined Canaanite
woman who begs him to help her troubled
daughter. Since the woman was a Gentile,
the apostles wanted to send her away, but
Jesus continued to speak with her. Besides
her great faith and courage, the woman
also showed tremendous love for her child.
She was willing to risk rejection for
breaking through the barriers of
convention to ask for help. She truly
believed that Jesus could help her
daughter, and despite what seemed like his
initial reluctance, she simply wasn’t
going to give up. She persisted, even
begging him. Eventually Jesus praised her
undaunting faith and healed her daughter.
Jesus’ reply is one we would all love
to hear: “O woman, great is your
faith! Let it be done as you
wish.”
1.) Have you ever experienced
rejection because of your gender, race, or
religion? How did you deal with
it?
2.) Have you ever been asked for
help by someone of another race or
culture? How have you responded?
