Holy Is the Day Quotes

“Looking at the parable of the poor widow who gave her last coins to the offering, I considered what it is to give God everything, to truly give him significant pieces of yourself until you have given him your all. To give so much that all that is left is to be with him. I think of how the world measures the depth of our giving by what we hand over, but Jesus measures it by what we hold on to.”
― Carolyn Weber, Holy Is the Day: Living in the Gift of the Present
