In Matthew 2, we read about the Magi seeking Jesus by following a star. This demonstrates God’s pursuit of us through signs and wonders, the global nature of salvation, and the truth that we have all been tasked with carrying the light to those who have not yet known it.

Jesus calls us to leave a legacy of love with every interaction that we have. That means, we are to extend ourselves for the benefit of others, even when it doesn’t make sense.

The first of the signs of Jesus is supplying the source of abiding joy for a wedding feast.  In a world that is often searching for joy in all the wrong places, Jesus reminds us that when we do whatever he tells us, we experience real glory.

Jesus asks “What are you looking for?” We are invited to come and see for ourselves that the Jesus way of service and sacrifice leads to eternal and abundant life.

In John 1:1-14, we read about our God, who did not stay distant, but who lived as God’s ultimate message for us, bringing light into the darkness, offering us grace and truth, and inviting us into His family.

Committing to the ways, words, and wisdoms of God takes more than just words… it takes action! Fully commit to God by repenting and working in His vineyard.

Ultimate security and fulfillment come, not from amassing possessions for self, but from a life that is “rich toward God,” grounded in faith and generosity.

In Luke 16, we see the importance of thinking long-term and how our faithfulness in the small things is more important than “big opportunities.” However, our greatest need is not better money management or better investments, but a need for a Savior. Placing our faith in Jesus is the best investment we can make.

God gives us resources not to hoard but to create opportunities to enhance the kingdom of God. Hoarding is not only an act of selfishness but of a lack of faith that God will provide for our daily needs. All of us will be accountable for the resources at our disposal.
