This woman found comfort in her misery by thinking great thoughts of Christ. Jesus spoke of the children's bread. She reasoned, "You, the Master of the table of grace, are a generous host. There's always plenty of bread on your table. There will be so much for the children that crumbs will fall for the dogs, and the children won't miss a thing." She believed in his generosity, thinking what she needed was just a crumb compared to his abundance. Her request was for a demon to be cast out of her daughter, a significant need, but she viewed it as a mere crumb for Christ to fulfill.

Dwelling only on your sin can lead to despair. But focusing on Christ will guide you to peace. "My sins are many, but removing them is nothing for Jesus. The weight of my guilt might seem crushing, but to him, it's just a grain of dust. He's already carried it on the cross.

It won't be hard for him to give me full forgiveness, though it will be an immense blessing for me." This woman opened her heart wide, expecting great things from Jesus, and he filled it with his love. We should do the same. She acknowledged her unworthiness, yet clung to Christ, drawing strength even from his challenging words. She believed in him and triumphed through her faith. Her story shows prevailing faith. To conquer as she did, we must follow her example.
