The Widow’s Mite
Luke 21:1-4

In this passage, the widow didn’t give more in the sense of a higher dollar amount, but her sacrifice was greater. The world would never notice this woman or this gift, but Jesus notices. Jesus was more interested in why she gave than what she gave because God is after her heart. He wants all of your heart, like His Father had all of this poor widow’s heart.

  • Jesus’ radical generosity toward us is a model for our radical generosity toward others.
  • God gives some people more, so they can share with those who have less.
  • God wants His people to enjoy what He’s given to them.
  • Money cannot make anyone happy.
  • It’s good to save money and build wealth.

Any of these principles taken alone will leave you out of balance, but holding them all in tension together will provide you with a biblically sound and balanced approach to your money and possessions.

Thank you for listening!
