Luke 21:1-4 (NIV) 1 As he looked up, Jesus saw the rich putting their gifts into the temple treasury. 2 He also saw a poor widow put in two very small copper coins. 3 "I tell you the truth," he said, "this poor widow has put in more than all the others. 4 All these people gave their gifts out of their wealth; but she out of her poverty put in all she had to live on."
I have held many things in my hands, and I have lost them all; but whatever I have placed in God's hands, that I still possess.—Martin Luther
