When Little Becomes Much

"I tell you the truth," Jesus said, "this poor widow has put in more than all the others. All these people gave their gifts out of their wealth; but she out of her poverty put in all she had to live on." Luke 21:3-4

The widow gave far less than others and yet she gave far more because she gave all she had. We don't have to have much to give much. You may think that what you can give, whether money or ability, doesn't amount to much in comparison to what others are able to give but if you give yourself fully to the Lord He will take great delight in your offering. It is not the amount of what we give that impresses our Lord but the amount of the sacrifice that is represented by our gift.

Father, I thank You for all the blessings that you have given me and pray that You will help me to give back to You all in the spirit of the poor widow.

I'm praying for you.
Pastor Mark
