“the children’s crumbs” [Mark 7:28]
October 13
“the children’s crumbs”. It is the ‘children’s crumbs’ I need from the Lord Who made and upholds all things I can ever see or know.
What seems impossible to me is no problem for Him: the improbable to me is everyday to Him.
If I can get into right perspective what I feel I need and what He can do, much of my difficulty will be solved.
By telling Him that the healing of her demented daughter was a mere crumb to the Lord, though the greatest thing that could happen to her, this Greek lady opened the gates of God’s blessing into her life. She must have been glad that the Lord extracted this confession from her by seeming to ignore her request.
There is no reason why the same should not happen to us today if we will exhibit the same faith.
