Sunday Chat: Reason For The Season

Saying, “Where is he 
who has been born 
king of the Jews? 
For we saw his star 
when it rose and 
have come to worship him.” 
Matthew 2:2 

And behold, 
the star they had seen 
in the east went on before them, 
until it came to rest 
over the place where the Child was. 
When they saw the star, 
they rejoiced exceedingly 
with great gladness. 
Matthew 2:9-10 

For to us a child is born, 
to us a son is given; 
and the government 
shall be upon his shoulder, 
and his name shall be called 
Wonderful Counselor, 
Mighty God, Everlasting Father, 
Prince of Peace. 
Isaiah 9:6 

And when they had come into the house, 
they saw the young Child  
with Mary His mother, 
and fell down 
and worshiped Him. 
And when they had opened 
their treasures, 
they presented gifts to Him: 
gold, frankincense, and myrrh. 
Matthew 2:11 

Each one must give as  
he has decided in his heart,  
not reluctantly or under compulsion,  
for God loves a cheerful giver. 
2  Corinthians 9:7 

Every good gift and  
every perfect gift is from above,  
coming down from the Father of lights  
with whom there is no variation  
or shadow due to change. 
James 1:17 
 
Give, and it will be given to you.  
Good measure,  
pressed down, shaken together,  
running over, will be put into your lap.  
For with the measure you use it  
will be measured back to you.” 
Luke 6:38 
 
Whoever is generous to the poor  
lends to the Lord,  
and he will repay him for his deed. 
Proverbs 19:17 

In all things I have shown you  
that by working hard in this way  
we must help the weak and  
remember the words of the Lord Jesus,  
how he himself said,  
‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’” 
Acts 20:35 

Let your moderation  
be known unto all men.  
Philippians 4:5 
 
If you have found honey,  
eat only enough for you,  
lest you have your fill of it and vomit it. 
Proverbs 25:16 

Jesus said to him, 
“I am the way, 
and the truth, 
and the life. 
No one comes to the Father 
except through me. 
John 14:6
