True Giving
21As Jesus looked up, he saw some rich people putting their gifts into the Temple money box. n 2Then he saw a poor widow putting two small copper coins into the box. 3He said, “I tell you the truth, this poor widow gave more than all those rich people. 4They gave only what they did not need. This woman is very poor, but she gave all she had to live on.”
