I. SEE GOD'S ORDINANCE THAT HIS CAUSE SHOULD BE SUPPORTED BY OUR GIFTS.

II. THAT THE LORD NOTICES THE GIFTS WE CAST INTO HIS TREASURY.

III. THAT THE LORD PASSES JUDGMENT ON THOSE WHO CAST THEIR GIFTS INTO HIS TREASURY. He declared she had given more than all the rest.

1. She had given more, because she had given with a larger heart, with more real love.

2. She had given more in proportion to her possessions.

3. She had given more in the force of her example.

4. She had given more in its beneficial influence on the character of the giver.

5. She had given more in the relation of the gift to its future reward.Learn:

1. The right use of money.

2. The value of the offerings of the poor.

3. That the Lord sits over against the treasury.

(W. Waiters.)
