Tuesday 10th Week of Ordinary Time

 

The Jar of Flour shall not go empty. I Kings 17:1-7

clear glass container
The Widow of Zarephath had nothing.
Only a jar with a handful full of flour.

But Elijah came along and told her to take what little she had
And fix him some bread.

And because of her generosity,
God was generous to her
And her jar never ran out of flour.
Even in the worst drought.

Generosity is a gift given by those who have little,
Not by those who have abundance.

For the poor can be generous even in their poverty
For God will be generous in return.
