The Widow with the Two Coins - Her Legacy Of Prayer

Jesus said, “I tell you the truth, 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.”

— Mark 12:43

REFLECT ON:	Mark 12:41 – 44.
PRAISE GOD:	For judging not by outward appearances but as one who sees the heart.
OFFER THANKS:	For blessings of money, time, energy, and emotional resources.
CONFESS:	Any tendency to act as though your security depends more on you than it does on God.
ASK GOD:	To make you a generous woman with the faith to believe that even small gifts are worth giving.

Lift Your Heart

This week, think of an area of your life that feels particularly empty or impoverished. You may be lonely, financially stretched, or worried about the future. Whatever it is, pray about it. Listen for the voice of the Holy Spirit. Is God inviting you to do something to express your trust? What kind of offering would be the most pleasing to him? Once you hear his voice, go ahead and give him what his heart desires.

Father, you are the source of every blessing. This week, help me to give, not only out of my wealth, but out of my poverty. Remind me that I belong to you, body and soul, heart and mind, past, present, and future.
