Two Dollars and a Bus Pass

 It was a cold winter day and I decided to stop at the local
fast food restaurant for a roast beef sandwich and a coke. 
Although it wasn’t yet one o’clock, the restaurant was nearly
empty and I was the only person in line. In this podcast Tony
talks about what happened next, and how it changed his view of
generosity.


Scripture: When he looked up he saw some
wealthy people putting their offerings into the treasury and he
noticed a widow putting in two small coins.  He said, “I
tell you truly, this poor woman put in more than all the rest;
for those others have all made offerings from their surplus
wealth, but she, from her poverty, has offered her whole
livelihood.  Luke 21:1-4


Reflections:  What can we learn from
the poor widow in the gospels?  Do you find that the people
who have little and more inclined to share what they have than
people with more?  The young girl didn’t have much but she
offered to share what little she had.  Have you ever been in
this position?  How did you react?
