Two little Chinese boys stood outside of their Sabbath School class waiting to go in. One boy asked the other, “Why don’t you go in?”
“My stomach hurts,” replied the other boy.
“What’s the matter? Didn’t you have breakfast?”
“Well I was given a mo mo (biscuit).” He took the biscuit out of his pocket. He continued, “But I didn’t eat it because I didn’t have anything to give for my Sabbath School offering. So I decided to offer my food, but my tummy hurts so much!”
The other boy said, “I didn’t have any breakfast this morning either. I also brought a mo mo.”
The first boy excitedly said, “I’ve got an idea! We could both eat a half of one mo mo, and then we’d have one whole mo mo to give to Jesus.”
“That’s a good idea,” said the other. So they did so, eating it very slowly. And when their tummies were satisfied, they went proudly into Sabbath School.
When the offering plate was passed around, both boys put their hands on the mo mo, dropping it in. Although their offering wasn’t monetary, it was the largest offering given that day.
