A Widow’s Offering
41 Jesus was sitting in the temple near the offering box and watching people put in their gifts. He noticed that many rich people were giving a lot of money. 42 Finally, a poor widow came up and put in two coins that were worth only a few pennies. 43 Jesus told his disciples to gather around him. Then he said:
I tell you that this poor widow has put in more than all the others. 44 Everyone else gave what they didn’t need. But she is very poor and gave everything she had. Now she doesn’t have a cent to live on.
c.f: The Gospel of Mark 12:41-44
second leg of spring break: drive from cleveland to virginia to spend 3 days with my BFF. we've been BFF's for half of my life. she is so kind.... to me, to all people. i'm very lucky to have her.... not sure how I got so lucky.
anyway, had to drive the dreaded PA turnpike, which I HATE! It fills me with serious anxiety. all those tiny lanes, speeding semi's, and mountainous curvy roads. I used to not mind it, but now .... uugh. And then there is the tunnel... pure torture.
BUT, we made it. It took 6.5 hours... the kids were great. and when I got there we had so many signs of welcome. hugs, flowers, notes on the bathroom mirror. It made me warm and fuzzy all over......
I thought my other picture was a little dark to see the brown of the setting squares correctly. I used Moda's dot-to-dot for Robert Kaufman. Also, 2 bricks are not Blessings, can you find them? One is a repro black and the other a Thimbleberries club fabric from 2004.
