Honey Drop 23: The Crumb and the Cry

eejoseph,

“Yes, Lord, yet even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their masters’ table”.
Matthew 15:27

The scene

She did not ask for the feast. 
She asked for the fragment. 
Not because she thought herself unworthy, 
but because she knew what a crumb could do.

The cry was not polite. 
It was persistent. 
It was not rehearsed. 
It was real.

The comfort – the tension

Faith is not always loud— 
but it is always heard. 
And mercy is not measured 
by portion, 
but by presence.

Even the crumbs carry power 
when they fall from the hand of Christ. 
Even the cry of an outsider 
can move the heart of heaven.

The drop

So cry out. 
Not for what you deserve, 
but for what He delights to give. 
The table is wide. 
And the crumbs are enough.
