He Sees.

"Jesus beheld how the people cast money into the treasury." Is that true? Is his eye upon me when I give to the poor and to his cause? Did he observe how much—or perhaps how little—I contributed? Was I ashamed that any human eye should behold the pittance I cast into his treasury? And did I forget that he beheld it? True, if it was the widow's mite, he would commend and bless it. And if he beheld my avarice and parsimony, however he may bless the gift, have I any reason to suppose he will bless me?

The next time I stand beside his treasury, let me behold Jesus sitting over against the treasury, and beholding what is thrown therein. Let me give under the notice of his eye! Be it much or little, may it meet his commendation, while it helps his cause or blesses his poor.—Christian Standard.
