what does the widow teach us


the widow at the altar
two coins to her name
giving them up to God
all she had in life

what does the widow teach us
how do we measure up
do we bring our lives
when we come to the altar
what do we hold back

do we give like the widow
having faith enough
to sacrifice, to offer
to give God our all
