    “They all contributed out of their abundance, but she out of her poverty has put in everything she had, all she had to live on”. (Mark 12:44)

    Generosity is one of the hallmarks of the Christian life and this is not surprising as it belongs to the attributes of God. Generosity is love in action “For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son”. You cannot love and not be generous. You can be generous without loving but you cannot ...read more

    In this section of the Gospel of Mark, Jesus clarifies what the most important command is. It is to love God and to love others. Wholeheartedly loving God means that we love Him with all our heart, soul, mind and strength. That kind of love is illustrated in the widow's gift.

The coins amount to only a quarter of a day’s wage, and though they are all she has, she still intends to give them as her offering.
