Giving that’s done for the praise of other people will likely be acknowledged with their praise.  But giving that’s done in secret for God’s glory, not our own, will be divinely rewarded in ways that reverberate into eternity.

 In Mark 12, as Jesus watched various wealthy people give their gifts, He also observed someone else make a contribution.  Scripture tells us He saw a poor widow give a gift.  Her gift didn’t stand out to anyone but Jesus because all she contributed was two small copper coins that when added together equaled a penny.  In Christ’s estimation, why was her gift so much more significant than the large gifts the wealthy people had contributed?
