Thirty-Second Sunday in Ordinary Time • Year B

In today’s Gospel, Jesus notices a widow at the temple. She’s almost invisible among the crowd; no one else would think twice about her. But He sees her for who she truly is – a woman of deep faith and radical generosity. Though she is poor, she places two small coins into the treasury. These coins don’t amount to much in value, yet Jesus tells us they mean everything, because in giving them, she gives her entire livelihood. It’s a remarkable act of faith: trusting that God will care for her even as she gives her last bit of money.
