Tuesday, April 7 - Mark 12
"I tell you the truth, this poor widow has put more into the treasury than all the others. They gave out of their wealth; but she, out of her poverty, put in everything - all she had to live on."
In the last few days I have witnessed several incredible acts of generosity towards Jayla Cooper's family. Jayla was a nine year old girl who died last week. We held her funeral service at the church on Sunday afternoon. During Jayla's illness so many people expressed kindness and generosity towards her family. But there were several people who's generosity towards the family was stunning. It wasn't the dollar amount but the manner in which they gave so completely of themselves to serve the family. I thought of that group of people this morning as I read this passage. They lived out Jesus' words about the widow and "put in everything."
