"Then Jesus answered and said unto her, O woman, great is thy faith: be it unto thee even as thou wilt. And her daughter was made whole from that very hour." Matt 15:28
When I read the story of the woman from cannan I marvel at her faith. I think to myself "Do I have that kind of faith?"
"And he saith unto them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith? Then he arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm." Matt 8:26
Then I read about how the Lord rebuked the deciples for not having enough faith.
When you think about it the woman from cannan did not follow the Lord around and see all the wonderful things that he did. But the deciples had.
"Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." Heb 11:1
Just because you follow close to God does not mean you have great faith....
Its obvious that this woman from cannan had more faith than all 12 deciples put togeather because the Lord was always telling them "Oh ye of little faith"
Where are you in your christian walk?
Do you walk the walk and look the part but have no faith at all or do you accept the fact that you are a dog (like the cannan woman was told) and have Great Faith!
