Crumbs of Faith, Healing Granted

Neville's Inner Vision

In Neville Goddard’s spirit, the scene is an inner drama of states. The “children” are conscious desires presently acknowledged in awareness, while the “dogs under the table” symbolize neglected beliefs hiding just beneath attention. The bread belongs to the I AM, the awareness that can never be truly starved; the crumbs represent the tiniest, unassuming yet precise impression of faith that still satisfies the need when embraced. The woman’s reply—“Yes, Lord: yet the dogs under the table eat of the children’s crumbs”—is an act of inner alignment, not a denial of circumstance. She does not contest lack but confirms that even a crumb’s sufficiency can nourish the hidden daughter within. When Jesus says, “the devil is gone out of thy daughter,” he is acknowledging a state of consciousness that has shifted. The external healing—the daughter laid on the bed—follows the inner conviction that healing is already present in the I AM. Mark’s scene invites you to see your life as an inner table from which you feed the real, unfallen conditions you seek. Your healing is the natural expression of a fixed, loving state within you.
