Sacrificial Giving

Luke 21:1-4   
1 And He looked up and saw the rich putting their gifts into the treasury, 2 and He saw also a certain poor widow putting in two mites. 3 So He said, “Truly I say to you that this poor widow has put in more than all; 4 for all these out of their abundance have put in offerings for God, but she out of her poverty put in all the livelihood that she had.”

What we give to God with an abandoned heart is never too little an amount.  When we give without compulsion apart from obligation, we are motivated by love for God and so for others.  It is not the abundance given, but the willingness and true generosity that He looks for in our heart's actions.
