Praying for God's Justice: 20th Sunday in Ordinary Time

In the Gospel for this 20th Sunday in Ordinary Time, we hear of Jesus' encounter with a Canaanite woman, who comes to plead with Jesus on behalf of her daughter who is possessed by a demon. In his reflection, Tony Crescio ( @anthonycrescio ) explains that there is a twofold lesson in this episode, one having to do with the life of prayer and the other dealing with authentic inclusivity. In the end, what we discover is that both prayer and inclusivity must be based on the virtues of humility and justice, which deal with reality as it is in all of its messiness.
