People like to judge ourselves and others all the time. Usually it comes from a self-centered desire to exalt ourselves over man. We want others to praise us. And yet it is God alone who deserves all praise, and it is Jesus alone who is the judge of all.
As we look at this passage we’ll see Jesus address these common human tendencies as we compare the scribes with this poor widow who gave everything she had.

It’s the Christmas season already. For many in Marin this is a time of goodwill. It’s a time to spread love and to give gifts. Of course, this holiday used to have a more Christian emphasis in our culture, but that’s quickly becoming less and less the case anymore. And yet, even among people who don’t go to church regularly, Christmas might be one of the times that they do. It’s hard even for the secular public to get away from the fact that Christmas is a day for many to remember the birth of Jesus Christ.
And yet, even though many people might know that is what Christmas is historically about, that doesn’t mean people really know who Jesus is. Sure, they might know something of Jesus Christ. They might know something about his teachings. They can probably even quote you a few sayings of Jesus. But that doesn’t mean they really know who Jesus is. They might know the human Jesus in some general historical way, but that doesn’t mean they know who he really is as the Christ.
