A Firm Foundation – Day 5: The Widow’s Offering
Date: Thursday, October 9, 2025
Luke 21:1–4 (NIV)
Reflection
Jesus praised the widow who gave her two small coins because she gave from her heart, not from her surplus. True generosity is not measured by the size of the gift, but by the sacrifice and trust behind it.
When we give ourselves fully to God—whether in resources, time, or devotion—we demonstrate faith that inspires others. Even small acts of generosity can have a great impact on the next generation, showing them what it means to rely on God.
Reflection Prompts
What does this widow teach us about faith and generosity?
How might your giving inspire others, even if it seems small?
Discussion Questions
Why do you think Jesus honored the widow’s offering?
How can we redefine generosity as more than financial giving?
How does sacrificial giving shape our faith?
Closing Prayer
Lord, teach us to give with joy and trust like the widow. May our generosity reflect our confidence in You and inspire others to live by faith. Amen.
