Mark 7:24-30 The Message 24-26 From there Jesus set out for the vicinity of Tyre. He entered a house there where he didn’t think he would be found, but he couldn’t escape notice. He was barely inside when a woman who had a disturbed daughter heard where he was. She came and knelt at his feet, begging for help. The woman was Greek, Syro-Phoenician by birth. She asked him to cure her daughter.
27 He said, “Stand in line and take your turn. The children get fed first. If there’s any left over, the dogs get it.”
28 She said, “Of course, Master. But don’t dogs under the table get scraps dropped by the children?”
29-30 Jesus was impressed. “You’re right! On your way! Your daughter is no longer disturbed. The demonic affliction is gone.” She went home and found her daughter relaxed on the bed, the torment gone for good.
I found this so interesting, we have to put our Dog in the kennel while we eat because he isn't just interested in the scraps, he would like to just eat off my plate.
Jesus had taken off with his disciples to teach them and he didn't want the crowds that followed him around to find them but one woman did. What faith she had, Jesus told her "NO" but she stood up for herself and her daughter. Pray and faith friends! God Bless
