"“Yes, Lord, but even the dogs eat the crumbs which fall from their masters’ table.” Then Jesus answered her, “Woman, great is your faith! Be it done to you even as you want.” And her daughter was healed from that hour." (Matthew 15:27-28)
Great Faith
Jesus tested her faith by seeming to refuse her initially. She humbly accepted her position but claimed the "crumbs" of God's mercy. Jesus called her faith "great"—a commendation rarely given.
Key Lesson: Humility and persistence in prayer unlock God's heart. Grace extends beyond boundaries.
