the heart of our giving

not the amount
the ability to pay
the heart of our giving
what matters to God

not the payday
the harvest of money
the heart of our giving
what matters to God

The Widow’s Mite
Luke 21:1-4 (KJV)
21 And Christ looked up, and saw the rich men casting their gifts
into the Temple treasury. 2 And he saw also a certain poor widow
casting in there two small coins.3 And he said, “In truth I say unto you,
that this poor widow hath cast in more than they all: 4 For all these have
of their abundance cast in unto the offerings of God: but she of her

extreme poverty hath cast in all the living that she had.”
