Jesus promised us that we will reap what we sow in an increased, multiplied abundant measure. No matter how large or small God will multiply your returns. God loves a cheerful giver and the increase on your gift can be phenominal, when your heavenly Father gives your harvest back to you. Sow today and reap a harvest!
Jesus looked up and saw the rich putting their gifts into the Treasury in the Temple; and He saw a poor widow put in two copper coins. And He said, "Truly, truly I say to you, this widow has put in more than all of them; for they all contributed out of their abundance, but she out of her poverty has put in everything that she had." Luke 21:1-4
