The thing about giving

From last week's sermon:

The thing about giving is not on how much you can give, but how much you are willing to give.

Let's say, a rich woman and a poor widow giving donations to the church. The rich woman gives an abundance and a big sum of money while the poor widow, hardly has anything to eat after losing her husband, gives her last coin to the church.

Now which one is the most noble?

Of course, the poor widow.

The thing about giving is not about giving what you have in abundance but what you can give even though it might hurt you.

Sometimes, we tend to give people what we don't want anymore and keep the things we want to ourselves even though some people might need it more than we do. And this, we don't realise.

But if you should try one day, to give someone something that you might want it for yourself, trust me, you'll gain more than what that person gained.
