On this Thirty-Second Sunday in Ordinary Time, we read:
He sat down opposite the treasury and observed how the crowd put money into the treasury.
Many rich people put in large sums. A poor widow also came and put in two small coins worth a few cents. Calling his disciples to himself, he said to them, “Amen, I say to you, this poor widow put in more than all the other contributors to the treasury. For they have all contributed from their surplus wealth, but she, from her poverty, has contributed all she had, her whole livelihood” (Mark 12: 41-44).
This parable can be approached in many ways. In one way, it can remind us to be good stewards or caretakers of our goods. “Goods” refer to our money and worldly possessions. In the Catholic worldview, God owns the material world; we are merely stewards to use the good of the world in a wise and compassionate way. We are called to share what we have with those who have less. My motto is very helpful here: Serving God by serving others.”
Second, we can use this parable to remind us that God wants our whole selves. That is why we put God first in our lives. God doesn’t want half-measures. So, we are called to do the best we can with what we have at all times.
