​Week 3, Day 2
January 18, 2022
Scriptures: Mark 12
 
“Jesus sat down opposite the place where the offering were put and watched the crowd putting their money into the temple treasury. Many rich people threw in large amounts. But a poor widow came and put in two very small copper coins, worth only a fraction of a penny.
Calling his disciples to him, Jesus said, “Truly I tell you, this poor widow has put more into the treasury than all the others. They all gave out of their wealth; but she, out of her poverty, put in everything==all she had to live on.”
 
What a gift. 
 
Jesus is teaching his disciples to notice the important things. What’s most important is the trust in God that is on display in this gift. We can all give what we are comfortable with. But she gives out of her poverty. She shows complete trust in God.
 
I need this encouragement and reminder to look towards what is the best and most important gift. Do I trust in God? Is my giving a reflection of that trust? 
 
Something to think about!
