The Great East-Japan Earthquake got a lot of media coverage in the world. Many Christians in India and Indonesia cried and prayed for Japan. Not only that, they gave us an offering for Japan. I was much impressed by their action. When we exchange this offering to Japanese yen, it’s not a big money but I felt their love, faith, and a lump in my throat.
In the Bible, there was a poor widow who threw in two leptas, which was the minimum amount of offering. Also, there were rich people who threw in big money. The Lord, Jesus said, “this poor widow has put in more than all those who have given to the treasury.” Our eyes see how much we give but our Lord sees our heart and faith.
Mark 12:41~44
