But He answered and said, “I was not sent except to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.” Matthew 15:24
Have you achieved a life of professional success? Are you respected in far regions of the globe for your worldly knowledge? No? Me neither. As the world measures success, I'm not quite there yet and may not make it before the end comes. Do you feel often like a lost sheep sending out a querulous bleat to an uncaring world? Good! You and I are exactly what the Good Shepherd came to this world to find. "But I'm not of the house of Israel, just one of those Gentile dogs," you say. Read the story around our verse for today and see how great faith won the day for a woman of our ken.
Is the Lord not giving you direction for where to go? Perhaps He already has you there, right where He wants you to be.
