2 people

You make me show up as me. Fully me. I see you are also here as you. Fully you. We talk, we laugh, we eat, and we make love. We dance, we play, we fight, and we make up. 2 people – imperfect, yet complete. 2 people – unique, yet one.

– Osasu Oviawe

A widow’s mite

Luke 21:1-4
He looked up and saw the rich putting their gifts into the treasury; and he saw a poor widow put in two copper coins. And he said, “Truly I tell you, this poor widow has put in more than all of them; for they all contributed out of their abundance, but she out of her poverty put in all the living that she had.”

Homily:

No one but God, knows the sacrifices people make to give.

God being love, pays attention to the sacrifice, more than the value of the gift.

If you wait to have more before you give, you neither understand the law of having nor giving.
