Give the Best You have to Jesus
Matthew 2:11
And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him…


It matters not how poor the offering be, if it is the best you can give. A legend tells us how once u little boy in church had no money to place among the offerings on the altar, so he gave a rosy apple, the only gift he had to offer. Presently, when the priest removed the alms from the altar, he found there an apple of pure gold. The simplest gift is in the eyes of God as pure gold.
