In practising the lesson which it teaches, each of us will sound his own heart in the presence of Him who is the "searcher of all hearts." We will consider the nature of the demand that is made upon us, that " a house has been prepared, not for man but for God." If we have abundance we will feel that we ought to give out of our abundance, and if we have only the widow's mite we will not refuse...
