"He [Jesus] sat down opposite the treasury and observed how the crowd put money into the treasury.
Many rich people put in large sums.
A poor widow also came and put in two small coins worth a few cents.
Calling his disciples to himself, he said to them,
“Amen, I say to you, this poor widow put in more than all the other contributors to the treasury.
For they have all contributed from their surplus wealth, but she, from her poverty, has contributed all she had, her whole livelihood.” (Mark 12: 41 - 44 RM)
"What return shall I make to the Lord for all that He has done for me?" (Psalm 116: 12)
Who can outdo God in generosity?
This poor widow has experienced God’s faithfulness in provision and protection all the years of her widowhood.
We offer You this, O Lord our God from all that you have given us.
"O God, whose providence never fails in its design, keep from us, we humbly beseech you, all that might harm us and grant all that works for our good. Through Christ our Lord. Amen."
