Today’s GospeL Verses ~ Mark 12:35-44
35 - As Jesus was teaching in the temple, he said, “How can the scribes say that Messiah (Greek Christ) is the son of David? 36 When David, in the Holy Spirit, said, ‘The Lord said to my Lord, sit at my right hand, until I put your enemies under your feet.’ 37 How can David call him Lord if he’s his son?” And the people were gladly listening to him.
38 And he said, “Be wary of the scribes. They like to walk around in long robes, be greeted in the marketplaces, 39 and have the best seats in the synagogues, and the places of honor at feasts, 40 yet they devour widows' houses, and as a pretense make long prayers. They will receive the greater condemnation.”
41 Afterwards, he sat down opposite the treasury and was watching the people put money in the offering box. Many wealthy people put in large sums. 42 But then a poor widow came in who put in two small copper coins. 43 So he called his disciples to him and said, “Truly, I tell you, this poor widow has put in more money than anyone else. 44 For they all contributed out of their abundance, but she out of her poverty has put in all she had to live on.”

(In the Order Believed Written)
~ Galatians 6:9-18 ~
9 - So let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap if we don’t give up. 10 As we have opportunity, let us do good to all, especially to those who are of the household of faith.
11 See with what large letters I am writing to you with my own hand. (Paul had developed an eye and sight problem or infection.) 12 It is those who want to show themselves off as making a good show who would force you to be circumcised. And this is only in order that they won’t be criticized for the cross of Christ. (Hebrew believers wanting friendship and approval from the world of their day and place.) 13 For even those who are circumcised don’t themselves keep the law, but they want to have you circumcised that they may boast in you. (Believers can be misled by wanting followers of theirselves.) 14 But I don’t want to boast in anything, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus, the Christ (christos - anointed one). By him I have been crucified to the world, and the world has been crucified to me. 15 For circumcision doesn’t matter, whether you are circumcised or not circumcised. What matters is being a new creation.16 And for all who walk by this rule, peace and mercy be upon them, and upon the Israel (household) of God. 17 And from now on let no one cause me trouble, for I bear on my body the marks of serving Jesus.
18 The grace of our Lord Jesus be with you, brothers and sisters. Amen.
