Are you experiencing JOY in your life currently? One way we can have more JOY is to look at how a poor widow lived. Looking at Mark 12:41 Jesus observed people put money into the treasury. Some people put in large sums of money. Jesus pointed out the poor widow who put in only two copper coins. He noticed that she put God first even though she did not have much. She loved God and truly gave the most.


A generous attitude and simply thinking of others brings more JOY. God blesses us and others over and above. Spend time over the next few days in prayer, asking God to bring to mind who you can bless.
