The truth about your stocks, cash, and 4081-K? They’re not really yours.
The Gospel of Mark tells the story of a poor widow who came to the temple and dropped in two small coins as an offering. She was down to her last pennies, yet rather than spend them on bread, she returned them to God.
Financial gurus would have urged her to cut back on her giving. They would have discouraged the generosity of the woman. But Jesus did just the opposite. He said,
“I tell you the truth, this poor widow has given more than all the others who are making contributions.”
God owns everything and gives us all things to enjoy. Let’s move from the fear of scarcity to the comfort of provision. Experience less hoarding and more sharing.
Replace fear of the coming winter with faith in the living God!
