Jesus Beholds Our Giving

Mark 12:41
And Jesus sat over against the treasury, and beheld how the people cast money into the treasury: and many that were rich cast in much.

Jesus Beholds Our Giving


Jesus beheld how the people cast money into the treasury of the temple.  The Lord watches how we give to the works of the various institutions He has raised up.  Whether it is your local church, a para-church organization like a pro-life ministry or abused women’s shelter, or a missionary, He is beholding how we give.  There is something about our money and our hearts and Jesus is watching.  Because He is watching it is good for us to seek to give in a way that pleases Him.  He told us that where our treasure is there will our heart be also.  It is always good before we write that check, give that check or give an online offering to humbly bow our heads and ask Him to bless the giving and continue to guide us in how we would financially be used to further His kingdom.  He is beholding, may He be blessed when He considers our role in this part of His kingdom.
