THE WIDOW WINS
: “And there came a certain poor widow, and she threw in two mites, which make a farthing. And he called unto him his disciples, and saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, That this poor widow hath cast more in, than all they which have cast into the treasury”
TEXT: MARK 12:42-44
Mike Murdock said, “Giving is a sign that you have conquered greed.” As we come before the Lord, He knows the motive and the intentions of our heart.The widow in our text gave all that she had over and above everyone who gave out of the abundance of their possessions. She gave more than others in terms of the proportion of what she had. She probably had no source of income after her husband’s death. The two small copper coins were all she had – and yet she offered them to God.The rich on the other hand, had enough and to spare. So, what they offered to God was just loose change; what they could actually let go of without feeling it.
Jesus is teaching the disciples that it is not the amount of money given that is important, but rather the sacrifice made in the offering and the spirit with which we give. Learn to give the best of what you have to the Lord. Most importantly, He wants you to give Him the whole of your heart.
QUOTE: Learn to give the best.
PRAYER: O God, help me to give sacrificially, in Jesus’ name.
CHALLENGE: Give sacrificially to God
