Now these two examples are clearly different types of offerings, but I personally do not think that that matters as we think about what God is looking for in an offering. Jesus Himself is watching all of these physically rich people dropping money into the box, as it were. And then a poor widow, a woman who no longer had a husband to care for her, probably had a difficult time taking care of, you know, food and other staple items needed to sustain oneself, gave an offering that impressed Jesus: "out of her poverty put in all that she had, her whole livelihood."
