Reflection
1 Kings 17:10-16, Hebrews 9:24-28, Mark 12:38-44
“The poor widow”
Many wealthy people were dropping their contributions in the temple treasury, and Jesus was watching them. Among these people, Jesus saw a poor widow who went and put in two small coins. He, who knew the heart of every person, knew that this poor widow gave her all to God. She gave all because she loved God and trusted that He would take care of her.

With God in our hearts, we can give without counting the cost or putting the limits. Today, may we follow the footsteps of this poor widow who gives from the little that she had, from a heart that truly loved.

Questions for reflection:
What are my two small coins today? Do I hold tightly to them or do I have love in our hearts to let go and give them away?
