Happy Thanksgiving ❤ ahead of time in Christ( Jesus😊1st❤). Matthew 2:7-12
"7 Then Herod summoned the wise men secretly and ascertained from them what time
the star had appeared.
8 And he sent them to Bethlehem, saying,

" Go and search diligently for the child, and when you have found him, bring me word, that I too may come and worship him."

9 After listening to the king, they went on
their way. And behold, the star that they had seen when it rose went
before them
until it
came to rest over the place where the child(Jesus😊1st❤) was.
10 When they saw the star(❤), they rejoice😊 exceedingly with great joy.( When is the last time you too have great joy in Christ? )

11a And going into the house they( the wise men now remembering Matthew2:2 "2 saying, where is he who has been born king of the Jew? For we saw his star when it rose and have come( "have come " means function for coming is) to worship😊❤
