I am so blessed with such wonderful friends and family. My grandmother just passed yesterday and just today my mailbox was already filled with beautiful cards and notes. My dear friend dropped by a gorgeous orchid along with a very sweet card. It means so much to be thought of and to hear the warm sentiments from so many different people about Nano.
While I was with her these last few weeks, one particular parable kept coming to mind - that of the Widow's Offering.
Mark 12:41-44 (English Standard Version)
The Widow’s Offering
41 And he sat down opposite the treasury and watched the people putting money into the offering box. Many rich people put in large sums. 42And a poor widow came and put in two small copper coins, which make a penny. 43And he called his disciples to him and said to them, "Truly, I say to you, this poor widow has put in more than all those who are contributing to the offering box. 44For they all contributed out of their abundance, but she out of her poverty has put in everything she had, all she had to live on.
