Picayune

Picayune means of little value or account; small; trifling.

Jesus' affirmed a widow's picayune gift because she gave all that she owned.(Mark 12:42, Luke 21:2).

Calling His disciples to Him, He said to them, "Truly I say to you, this poor widow put in more than all the contributors to the treasury; for they all put in out of their surplus, but she, out of her poverty, put in all she owned, all she had to live on." (Mark 12:43-44, NASB)
