Matthew 15:27
By the words of this dear lady we are reminded of a simple, yet profound truth. Faith is, by its very nature, complete trust. The woman here continues to trust no matter what Christ might have to say to her, for she did truly trust him with everything. She realized, as we all must, her complete and total dependence upon him. Though he may tell us that our sins are many, we must trust his forgiveness, Though his word shows that we deserve death and hell, we must also trust his grace. Many have failed to have faith, not because they did not believe the message of Christ to be true, but because they did not trust him.
Bible Reading: Psalm 79:1-84:12
