"The widows MIGHT" Mark:12:41-44

A poor widow is the main character of this life lesson of faith. Having placed all that she had into the treasury, (2 copper coins= 1/64 of a denarius). Jesus tells his disciples that she had just placed more than all the other contributors had placed into the treasury. Two mites was not what this widow had trusted in, for if she had she might not have let them go. Her MIGHT was in God to whom the treasury ultimately belonged! May we learn a lesson from this glance of history that was chosen to be recorded for us. All that we have is only what God has given us, and may our mites not get into the way of His MIGHT!
