From today’s Gospel reading:And behold, a Canaanite woman of that district came and called out, "Have pity on me Lord, Son of David!”
Reflection: The Canaanite (Gentile) woman comes to plead for her tormented daughter. Her hunger and need are great. She comes to Jesus, the source of nourishment and healing. She is considered an outsider and not one of "the chosen." But she is focused on Jesus and will not be dissuaded. She represents each of us today hungry for the bread from the table and longing for God.
So, we ask ourselves: - Where and when in our lives have we experiencedbeing an "outsider”?- Who offered us a welcome?- Shall we give thanks today forthe welcome we received?

Every day we are called by Christ to respond in some way. The more practice we have at giving of ourselves freely and living in His presence, the easier it is to discern that call. Once we hear the call, the choice is ours: will we respond with yes or no? We could say that we are not required to say yes because God has given us free will. However, our response speaks much to where we are in our maturity of faith. When we were children, the word “no” used to be one of our favor-ites. If we continue to say that as we get older, well, that says something about where we are in our walk with the Lord. If we truly are disciples of Jesus Christ and are serious about growing in our faith, we will say “yes.” We are not required to say yes, but we say yes because that is who we have become.
