Jesus once stood in the temple treasury, observing the procession: businessmen swinging bags of silver, parents pressing coins into their children’s palms, couples giving their first joint contribution — and a poor widow who “dropped in two tiny coins worth very little.”
Mark doesn’t mince words; this offering appeared insignificant. But Jesus watched closely. This widow, overlooked by busy worshippers, unimportant to everyone around her, drew His attention...
Out of her little, she gave all — and it was more than enough. Because in God’s Kingdom economy, wholehearted devotion is a spiritual multiplier.
Maybe your season includes young children, aging parents, a broken marriage, chronic illness, or other challenges that tempt you to “wait until life gets better.” But what if, like the widow, you and I offered God our little snippets of time with cheerful hearts?
It’s OK to start small in God’s Word. If you have only two minutes, give them to Him with a cheerful heart. God looks at the heart behind the habit.
And as you give Him your two minutes each day, watch how He will also multiply your time in the weeks to come, providing abundant opportunities to enjoy His presence more than you thought possible.
