Jesus listed specific things (which come from the heart) that makes one unclean. Do you recognize any of these in your own heart?

Blasphemy and murders apart, i have fallen in each to at different depths. Jesus always saevd me from sinking deeper than what a slipping a stumbling would cause. Wisdom of the heart keeps you afloat.Look into Jesus eyes all the time :)Though it was the powerful hand of God which did before my full conversion to Mother Church...Jesus being that tiny babe we worship and love in the school presepio. Adding here the question to long to post in the allotted space: the expression 'for the multitudes' recently transalted in the new Missal 'pro multis' 'for many'vs for 'all' makes you think of the concrete gathering that Jesus, now each priest, has in front of him and gives a sense of multiplication numbers incraesing like the multiplying of the food offered by Jesus. And also brings to mind the words in Genesis live and muliply. When once vivified at the end of the Mass we are encouarged to bring out that Food to otehrs via our lives lived to the Word. Any thoughts anyone?

Jesus did not want to do miracles outside of Israel, yet the woman`s faith and persistence led to healing. What do you learn from this?

Apparently Jesus seems mercilesss...whys showing such disregard for the poor woman? Isn't salvation healing for all? but then you realsie that - and note the child has been healed already - this is a testing oportunity for this non Jewish woman that could ignite so many. The Jews had the OT to feed nurture their expectant faith with the prophecyes. And yet amny denied him What did this woman have? the Holy Spirit must have spoken to her ...why did she humbly, and humbleness was something else Jesus wanted to test, was so insistent begging Jesus...the crumbs fallen under the table will suffice? the Blood and Divinity and Humanity of Jesus is present in each single particle. And we need to kneel to receive what is the most humbling generous gift. The sacrifice of His only Son by the Father.
