Mark 12:41-44 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.… A missionary, in a report of his field of labour says: "I can imagine someone saying, as he reads this report, 'Well, I will give £5 to the cause; I can give that, and not feel it.' But suppose, my Christian brother, you were to give £20, and feel it?" There is vast meaning in the advice, "Give till you feel it." It is by this principle that churches are founded, and gospel institutions sustained. If this rule were to be put in operation everywhere, there would hardly be a feeble church in our land, or a church in debt, or a sanctuary out of repair, or a minister half-sustained, or a true cause of charity without adequate support.
