Maybe you lost your job. Or maybe you and your family can’t pay all the bills. You think that you don’t have much to give to God. So should you forget about giving your money to God?In our Bible Reading, Jesus and His followers were in the temple. Jesus watched people put their money in the temple money box. Some rich people gave a lot of money.
Then a widow (a woman whose husband had died) came and put two small copper coins in the money box. Jesus told His followers, “These coins were not even worth a penny” (verse 42b). Then Jesus said something amazing. In verse 43b, He said, “This poor widow gave only two small coins. But she gave more than all the rich people.” Jesus continued to say that this woman had given all she had.
It does not matter if you can give a lot or a little. God still wants you to share part of what He has given to you. When you give money to help your church or a missionary or poor people, you are doing what God wants you to do. — SH*
“This woman is very poor. But she gave all she had.” Mark 12:44b
PRAYER: God, help me to share with You. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
