"He said to her, "Let the children be fed first. For it is not right to take the food of the children and throw it to the dogs." She replied and said to him, "Lord, even the dogs under the table eat the children's scraps.""
Mark 7:27-28
Mark 7:27-28
Unity, this is the message of today's readings.
Why would Jesus make this comment to a woman who was kneeling at His feet begging to heal her daughter? Jesus wanted to know was she in union with God or was she going to become offended with Him. Every day we are dealt blows, do we get mad at God or are we in union with Him? Do we recognize who the fight is with? The evil one who stops at nothing to separate us from God.
Lord God, we live in a world that desperately needs You. I Thank You for being in my thoughts each morning. I thank You for the reminder to put on the battle armor as I go out into the world. Lord, may I accept what comes my way, may I remember to love as You love and may I make every effort to do Your will. I ask this in Jesus name, Amen.
Mary, Mother Dearest, pray for us!

1 John 4:4b
