32nd Sunday in Ordinary Time
What makes the widow’s gift valuable and important is not its size but the heart and the sacrifice behind it.
She keeps nothing back for herself and in a way she is making an offering of her total life to God.
When you give do you give from the heart?
God knows our inner motives and how much of our lives we are surrendering to Him.

Joke
An efficiency expert concluded his lecture with a note of caution.
“You don’t  want to try these techniques at home.”
“Why Not?” asked somebody from the audience.
“I watched my wife’s routine at breakfast for years,” the expert explained.
“She made lots of trips between the refrigerator, stove, table and cabinets, often carrying a single item at a time.
One day I told her, ‘Hon, why don’t you try carrying several things at once?”
“Did it save time?” the person in the audience asked.
“Actually, yes,’ replied the expert.
“It used to take her twenty minutes to make breakfast.
Now I do it in seven.”
