Read Luke 21 in the Bible

Luke 21:4

Of her penury.

To offer or give alms of our superfluities, is not so acceptable nor meritorious, as to bestow some of that which is of our necessary provision, and which we may hardly spare from ourselves: for, that proceedeth of greater zeal, will, and intention, which be more respected of God than the substance of the gift.
