In Mark 12:41-44, Jesus commends a poor widow and highlights her giving as a lesson to his disciples. When does the little I give amounts to more? 

  • When it is all I have to give.
  • When given willingly and without regret.
  • When given joyfully.
  • When given without comparison.
  • When given not to impress others.
  • When given in gratitude.
  • When given out of of a need.
  • When given in love.
  • When nothing is held back as too sacred for God.

This is not just applicable to money. It applies to other things, i.e., our time, talents and gifts, or service. Have you ever wondered how many people would give more if Jesus was standing close by and watching? Think about it the next time you are in a position to give.

Blessings!
