讀經一　申18：15-20 　　　讀經二　格前7：32-35  　詠95
主日福音　　谷1：21-28
他們進了葛法翁；一到安息日，耶穌就進入會堂教訓人。人都驚奇他的教訓，因為他教訓他們正像有權威似的，不像經師們一樣。當時，在他們的會堂裡，正有一個附邪魔的人，他喊叫說：「納匝肋人耶穌！ 我們與你有什麼相干？你竟來毀滅我們！我知道你是誰，你是天主的聖者。」耶穌叱責他說：「不要作聲！從他身上出去！」邪魔使那人拘攣了一陣，大喊一聲，就從他身上出去了。眾人大為驚愕，以致彼此詢問說：「這是怎麼一回事？這是新的教訓，並具有權威；他連給邪魔出命，邪魔也聽從他。」他的聲譽遂即傳遍了加里肋亞附近各處。

默　想

• 耶穌從來都無權無勢無財，但祂那莫名的感染力，深深影響著與祂遇上的人。那些被祂感染及影響的人，相信都不是心硬的人，他們有一定的開放性，願意被觸動、被塑造、被感染。
• 祂的感染力，足夠活化我們的肉心，教我們對身邊的人與事，以致世界上還在受苦的人，存在那份感應與憐憫。這顆肉心原本就是上主所造的，我們要善用它，不糟蹋它。
• 福音書告訴我們不少關於耶穌的行實，祂的一言一行繼續影響著今天的我們，只要我們的心尚未變得麻木不仁，我們還要感應祂、回應祂，體察祂的心，肯定祂是我們各人的主。祂就是默西亞。

恭讀瑪竇福音5: 1-12
那時候，耶穌一見群眾，就上了山，坐下；他的門徒上他跟前來，他遂開口教訓他們說：
「神貧的人是有福的，因為天國是他們的。
哀慟的人是有福的，因為他們要受安慰。
溫良的人是有福的，因為他們要承受土地。
飢渴慕義的人是有福的，因為他們要得飽飫。
憐憫人的人是有福的，因為他們要受憐憫。
心裏潔淨的人是有福的，因為他們要看見天主。
締造和平的人是有福的，因為他們要稱為天主的子女。
為義而受迫害的人是有福的，因為天國是他們的。
幾時人為了我而辱罵迫害你們，捏造一切壞話毀謗你們，你們是有福的。
你們歡喜踴躍罷！因為你們在天上的賞報是豐富的， 因為在你們以前的先知，人也曾這樣迫害過他們。」

—這是基督的福音。

1st Sunday after Chinese New Year - Saturday Evening Mass - 4th Sunday in Ordinary Time

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew 5: 1-12

When he saw the crowds, he went up the mountain, and after he had sat down, his disciples came to him.He began to teach them, saying:”Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.Blessed are they who mourn, for they will be comforted.Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the land.Blessed are they who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be satisfied.Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.Blessed are the clean of heart, for they will see God.Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.Blessed are they who are persecuted for the sake of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.Blessed are you when they insult you and persecute you and utter every kind of evil against you (falsely) because of me. Rejoice and be glad, for your reward will be great in heaven. Thus they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

—The Gospel of the Lord.

恭讀聖馬爾谷福音 4:35-41
一天晚上，耶穌對門徒說：「我們渡海到對岸去吧！」他們遂離開群眾，就照耶穌在船上的原狀，帶他走了；與他一起的還有別的小船。忽然，狂風大作，波浪打進 船內，以致小船已滿了水。耶穌卻在船尾依枕而睡。門徒叫醒他，給他說：「師傅！我們要喪亡了，你不管嗎？」耶穌醒來，叱責了風，並向海說：「不要作聲，平 定了吧！」風就停止了，遂大為平靜。耶穌對門徒說：「為什麼你們這樣膽怯？你們怎麼還沒有信德呢？」他們非常驚懼。彼此說：「這人到底是誰？連風和海也聽 從他！」——這是基督的福音。

(St. Don Bosco)

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Mark 4:35-41

35 On that day, when evening had come, he said to them, “Let us go across to the other side.” 36 And leaving the crowd, they took him with them in the boat, just as he was. And other boats were with him. 37 And a great storm of wind arose, and the waves beat into the boat, so that the boat was already filling.  38 But he was in the stern, asleep on the cushion; and they woke him and said to him, “Teacher, do you not care if we perish?” 39 And he awoke and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, “Peace! Be still!” And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm. 40 He said to them, “Why are you afraid? Have you no faith?” 41 And they were filled with awe, and said to one another, “Who then is this, that even wind and sea obey him?”

默　想

• 面對生活的擔子、憂慮、疑惑，我們需要靜下腳步，最好每天給自己一定的時間，作意識省察。
• 意識省察十分重要，讓我們每天再次調校自己，那生命的主宰究竟是誰？是那牽動我們情緒的上司、下屬、家人、客戶……？耶穌的位置在哪裡？又或祂是否在我們心中佔一席位？
• 福音中提醒我們，耶穌是誰？連風和浪都聽從祂，祂對你而言，是誰？你重視祂怎樣看你，多過別人怎樣看你嗎？這些儼如生命的測試器，告訴我們自己的生命關注點與重心在哪裡？這又與耶穌有密切關係嗎？

（梵蒂岡電臺訊）今年舉行國際天文學年，在這個機會上，天主教會願意向革新天才和教會的兒子伽利略致敬。這是昨天29日在新聞室介紹國際天文年聖座活動以及有關伽利略的國際研討會時所强調的。在介紹會中發言的有宗座文化委員會主席拉瓦西總主教、梵蒂岡天文臺台長弗內斯神父，以及宗座科學院主席卡比波教授。

拉瓦西總主教向在場的新聞界人士談了教會最近幾年來在重新考慮伽利略和伽利略案的努力，尤其是教宗若望保祿二世的努力，目的爲消除在科學與信仰進行平靜對照時因伽利略案所遇到的障礙。拉瓦西總主教說：“我認爲，伽利略案，一方面應該帶領我們神學家、教會對過去作毫無保留的自我批評，教宗若望保祿二世將伽利略作爲2000年大禧年淨化的因素之一。”拉瓦西總主教繼續說，不可僅僅停頓在對歷史的批判上，必須向前展望，打開從不同角度看現實的神學與科學間的對話。隨後，他提到今年5月26日到30日將在意大利佛羅倫薩舉行有關伽利略的國際研討會，這是聖座爲慶祝天文學年所舉行的重要活動之一。此外，拉瓦西總主教也宣布，今年3月將出版一本有關伽利略的委員會的書。這個委員會爲教宗若望保祿二世于1981年成立的。同時，也要在2009年年底前出版有關伽利略案審訊文件的再版。

Tallahassee, Jan 30, 2009 / 06:00 am (CNA).- Governor of Florida Charlie Crist has vetoed a half-million dollar cut in funding to crisis pregnancy centers in the state.

The Florida Legislature, meeting during a Special Legislative Session, passed a series of budget cuts to address a $2.3 billion shortfall, the Florida Family Policy Council reports. One funding cut passed by the legislature removed $574,728 from the $2 million allocated to the Florida Pregnancy Support Services Program.

The program is administered by the Florida Pregnancy Care Network which maintains a network of 50 crisis pregnancy centers that provide counseling and information to pregnant women to promote and encourage childbirth.

Then-Gov. Jeb Bush launched the initiative in 2005. It aims to provide the same level of information and services to women who desire to give birth that is provided to women who decide to abort their children.

The Florida Family Policy Council said the budget cut would have “severely limited” services and information available for lower income women in crisis pregnancies.

“This would have prevented women from receiving critical education in prenatal care, childbirth, parenting and adoption resources,” the Florida Family Policy Council said in a statement.

“We pray that the 2009 funding for next will also be renewed.”

恭讀聖馬爾谷福音 4:26-34
那時，耶穌向群眾說：「天主的國好比一個人把種子撒在地裏，他黑夜白天，或睡或起，那種子發芽生長，至於怎樣，他卻不知道。因為土地自然生長果實：先發苗，後吐穗，最後穗又滿了麥粒。當果實成熟的時候，便立刻派人以鐮刀收割，因為到了收穫的時期。」
他又說：「我們以什麼比擬天主的國呢？或用什麼比喻來形容它呢？它好像一粒芥子，種在地裏的時候，比地上一切的種子都小；當下種之後，生長起來，比一切蔬 菜都大；並且長出大枝，以致天上的飛鳥能棲息在它的蔭下。」耶穌用許多這樣的比喻，按照他們所能聽懂的，給他們講道。若不用比喻，他就不給他們講什麼，但 私下裏卻給自己的門徒解釋一切。

—這是基督的福音。

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Mark 4:26-34

26 And he said, “The kingdom of God is as if a man should scatter seed upon the ground, 27 and should sleep and rise night and day, and the seed should sprout and grow, he knows not how. 28 The earth produces of itself, first the blade, then the ear, then the full grain in the ear. 29 But when the grain is ripe, at once he puts in the sickle, because the harvest has come.” 30 And he said, “With what can we compare the kingdom of God, or what parable shall we use for it? 31 It is like a grain of mustard seed, which, when sown upon the ground, is the smallest of all the seeds on earth; 32 yet when it is sown it grows up and becomes the greatest of all shrubs, and puts forth large branches, so that the birds of the air can make nests in its shade.” 33 With many such parables he spoke the word to them, as they were able to hear it; 34 he did not speak to them without a parable, but privately to his own disciples he explained everything.

默　想

• 承接昨天的福音，基督徒的身分是鼓勵我們為主作見證，將祂的愛發揚出去，而非只是把信仰保留起來，只為己用。
• 唯有當我們越發把基督的福音、愛的精神廣傳，信仰才越發衍生其生命力，否則，信仰的動力只會枯萎。
• 怪不得聖保祿叮囑我們廣傳福音，否則我們就有禍了！這禍正是信仰生命的倒退與枯萎。
• 因為只有我們越願意去愛，我們才越能學會愛；否則，我們內裡那愛的動力，有天只會變得麻木、「生鏽」、蒙塵呢。

28/01/2009
（梵蒂岡電臺訊）教宗本篤十六世元月二十八日上午在梵蒂岡保祿六世大廳主持週三公開接見活動時，講話的内容特別多而且重要。除了講解聖保祿宗徒寫給弟鐸和弟茂德兩位愛徒的書信外，也談到他本月二十四日撤銷四位主教的自科絕罰令，同時重申第二次世界大戰期間德國希特勒納粹屠殺猶太人的罪行不可被遺忘，再就是祝賀莫斯科與全俄羅斯東正教于元月二十七日選出新任宗主教，他就是斯摩棱斯克及加里寧格勒兩地的縂主教，兼該東正教對外關係負責人基里爾（Kirill）。

關於基里爾縂主教的當選，教宗說：“我愉快地得知基里爾縂主教當選為莫斯科與全俄羅斯東正教的宗主教。我祈求聖神光照他慷慨為俄羅斯東正教服務，並求天主之母特別護佑他”。

接著，教宗談到他撤銷《聖庇護十世司鐸兄弟會》四位主教的自科絕罰令。這四位主教是在一九八八年六月二十九日由遭到開除教籍的法國勒菲弗縂主教非法祝聖的。教宗説明他撤銷他們自科絕罰令的理由說：“我做了這個慈父憐憫的行爲，因爲這幾位主教屢次向我表示他們為自己的處境深深感到痛苦。我希望他們繼我的措施之後，完成進一步必要的舉動，與教會達致圓滿的共融，以證明他們對教宗與梵蒂岡第二屆大公會議的訓導與權威的真實忠誠和真正承認”。

隨後，教宗談到這幾天各地正在紀念的第二次世界大戰期間，猶太人遭德國希特勒納粹大屠殺的悲劇。教宗說：“我再次真摯表示我對我們的弟兄，也就是天主第一個盟約的接受者完全和無可爭論的關懷，同時也祝望遭屠殺苦難的記憶引領世人反省邪惡佔據人心時，所產生的難以逆料的威力。願大屠殺浩劫為每個人都是反對遺忘、反對否認、反對淡化的警惕，因爲侵犯一個人的暴行就是侵犯衆人的暴行”。

教宗繼續說：“一位著名的詩人說：沒有人是個孤島。大屠殺浩劫教導老一輩和年輕一輩的人，只有聆聽和對話、愛與寬恕這條艱苦的路才能引導世界各民族、各文化、各宗教的人走向眾所期待的、在真理中的友愛與和平的目標。我們絕不能再讓暴力侮辱人的尊嚴”。

當天教宗的要理談的是聖保祿宗徒寫給他的兩位愛徒弟鐸和弟茂德的書信。這三封書信通稱為牧函，因爲是寫給這兩位當主教的人，教導他們如何帶領托付給他們照顧的信友。教宗說：“今天的基督信徒可以從這些書信中獲得許多有益的教導。這位外邦人宗徒在這些信中特別指出他如何面對當時在初期基督信徒團體中蔓延的一些錯誤。比方説把聖經當作歷史上一些新奇的事來閲讀。然而，因該是本著與聖神交談的心情來閲讀聖經”。

教宗又說：“在這幾封書信中，第一次對教會職務結構有深入的反省，其中指出聖秩的三個等次，就是主教，神父與執事。關於主教，教宗引用《弟茂德書》強調：身為主教的人必須是慈愛的，謹慎的，有教導能力，又是寬宏大量的”。教宗於是結束他的講話說：“讓我們祈求上主和聖保祿，使我們身為基督信徒的人在所生活的社會中，能表現出我們是天主家庭的成員。我們也要祈禱，使教會的牧人越來越具有慈父的心腸，既慈祥又堅強地培育天主的家，也就是教會團體”。

Alexandria, VA, Jan 29, 2009 / 08:02 am (CNA).- DMC Pharmacy, a new pro-life pharmacy in Chantilly, Virginia claims to have been the target of a bill recently introduced into the Virginia House of Delegates. The bill, which was tabled indefinitely, placed restrictions on pharmacies which refuse to prescribe contraceptives.

Virginia House Bill 2373 was proposed on Jan. 14 and tabled in the Committee on Health, Welfare and Institutions on Tuesday. Bob Laird, Executive Director of DMC’s parent company Divine Mercy Care, told CNA that the effect of the bill being tabled is that “the issue cannot be brought up again this year.”

Laird added that he knew the bill was aimed at DMC because it is the only pro-life pharmacy in the state.

The bill read: “Any pharmacist who refuses to fill a prescription for contraception shall ensure that the patient seeking such contraception is treated in a nonjudgmental manner and is not subjected to indignity, humiliation, or breeches in confidentiality. The pharmacist shall not confiscate a prescription for contraception that he refuses to fill.”

The bill also required licensed pharmacies which do not prescribe contraceptives to place a “conspicuous notice” in at least 30-point boldface type in both English and Spanish reading “THIS PHARMACY WILL NOT FILL OR REFILL BIRTH CONTROL PRESCRIPTIONS.”

The bill would have imposed a similar rule for pharmacies that do not prescribe “Plan B emergency contraception.”

The legislation was sponsored by delegate David Englin from Virginia’s 45th district, whom Laird claims is a “card carrying member of NARAL.”

Laird testified on Monday against the bill before the House committee, arguing “this bill is to stop an imagined problem which does not exist.”

Dr. John Bruchalski, President and Chairman of Divine Mercy Care, said he was not opposed to a business displaying the sign but argued it was not the right of the Commonwealth of Virginia to require the display of the sign.

“This is the second issue in a few days which attempts to suppress the ability of Catholics and the Catholic Church to practice their moral beliefs,” he said in a press release, naming U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s defense of funding birth control in the economic stimulus package as the first issue.

DMC Pharmacy, following Divine Mercy Care’s policies, does not dispense, recommend or counsel on contraceptive products.

Dr. Bruchalski explained the policy, saying “Divine Mercy Care is values-based and consumer-driven. Both patients and professionals do not want to abandon their conscience while they seek medical care.”

“We need to be professional, personal, and passionate about how we infuse our community with the love of Jesus Christ as we meet their healthcare needs.”

Vatican City, Jan 29, 2009 / 10:44 am (CNA).- Pope Benedict gathered the Roman Rota at the Vatican this morning to mark the end of the judicial year and to speak about marriage annulments involving mental incapacity.

The meeting was attended by the dean, judges, promoters of justice, defenders of the bond, officials and lawyers of the Tribunal of the Roman Rota, also known as the Church’s court.

This issue raised by the Pope dealt with questions surrounding annulment cases that could involve mental incapacity on behalf of one of the spouses.

Noting that John Paul II also addressed the same issue in his meetings with the Roman Rota in 1987 and 1998, Pope Benedict said that John Paul II’s words “give us the basic criteria, not only for studying the psychiatric and psychological examinations, but also for the judicial definition of the causes.”

The Code of Canon Law’s norm concerning mental incapacity was further enriched, he noted, by the Instruction ‘Dignitas connubii’ of January 25, 2005.

Benedict XVI explained that certifying that a mental incapacity existed must meet specific conditions: “there must be a specific mental anomaly that seriously disturbs the use of reason at the time of the celebration of the marriage, … or that puts the contracting party not only under a serious difficulty but even under the impossibility of sustaining the actions inherent in the obligations of marriage.”

The Church must not fall into a pessimistic view of marriage that “considers marriage as almost impossible,” the Holy Father warned.

“Reaffirming the inborn human capacity for marriage is, in fact, the starting point for helping couples discover the natural reality of marriage and the importance it has for salvation. What is actually at stake is the truth about marriage and about its intrinsic juridical nature, which is an indispensable premise if people are to understand and evaluate the capacity required to get married,” the Pope said.

“Such capacity,” he explained, “must be associated with the essential significance of marriage - ‘the intimate partnership of married life and love established by the Creator and qualified by His laws’ - and, particularly, with the essential obligations inherent to marriage that must assumed by the couple.”

Finally, Pope Benedict cautioned the jurists about “certain ‘humanistic’ schools of anthropology, which tend towards self-realization and egocentric self- transcendence.” These schools “idealize human beings and marriage to such an extent that they end up denying the mental capacity of many people, basing this on elements that do not correspond to the essential requirements of the conjugal bond.”

“In principle, causes of nullity through mental incapacity require the judge to employ the services of experts to ascertain the existence of a real incapacity, which is in any case an exception to the natural principle of the capacity necessary to understand, decide and accomplish that giving of self upon which the conjugal bond is founded.”

   2009年基督徒合一聚會的特色是以黙想、祈禱、聖詠形式進行。主題為「在你手中成為一根…」由一分為二的韓國所編訂；這正表示我們來自不同的教會和社群，但我們願意努力在主內成為一根。全球基督教協進會所提供的八日祈禱資料，我們將之簡化後轉變為八篇簡短的讀經，祈禱和黙想，而每篇都由一篇優美的聖詠作回應，領導黙想和祈禱的八位神父和牧師包括：

薛君浩神父(普世博愛運動)  則 / 結 37: 15-19, 22-24a   　在您手中合而為一

郭偉基神父(聖伯多祿堂)    賽2:1-4                  　我們不再學習戰爭

周國昌牧師(基督教崇真會)  詩篇 /聖詠集 146         　主保護無辜受壓者

曾慶文神父(九龍玫瑰堂)    創1: 31-2: 3        　上主所造的一切都很好

蘇成溢牧師(中華基督教會)  路18：9-14 基督徒要正視及改變歧視和社會的偏見

胡丙杰牧師(中華基督教會合一堂九龍堂) 谷／可10: 46-52  　 你願意我給你做甚麼

伍國寶神父(善導之母堂)    可/谷 7:24-30             接納異教徒

陳謳明法政牧師(聖公會聖約翰座堂)  啟21: 1-5上       上主要更新一切 

    每位牧者都有其獨特的方式帶領肢體深入反省和黙想，每個主題都與信友的生活息息相關，尤其感人的是蘇成溢牧師所提出的謙遜乃合一之根源，伍國寶神父強調對彼此的尊重和陳謳明牧師所提及的新天新地在乎我們怎樣好好運用我們團結的力量，不要集體的破壞地球而是集體的建立，成為新天地的具體創造者。 

    今年聖詠團的特色有來自不同的組合。例如天行者國際使團及基督教善樂堂善樂之聲的樂司們合奏序樂 「Let us be One」，其後天行者國際使團及普世博愛運動合唱「有一新誡命」，以及九龍玫瑰堂三個聖詠團合唱。聖公會聖約翰座堂詩班首次參加，高歌一首拉丁文的聖額爾略聖詠，令大家都陶醉於美妙的旋律中。每個聖詠團都找著最合適，最美麗的歌詞以回應黙想的主題，有助肢體更全神投入默想中。 

    今年肢體行動的環節用了一個特別的方式表達! 每位肢體進入禮堂時獲派一張美麗精緻的書簽，形狀是一個十字架，內含另一個可以套出來的小十字架。在八篇黙想和聖詩後，祭台前方左、右邊各安放一根有黏性的木棒，在共融的氣氛下，優雅的風琴聲伴著肢體手裏拿著套出來的小十字架前往祭台前，將之黏在其中一根木棒上，以表明大家在上主的手裡願意合而為一，成為一根，共同見證上主的愛和恩典，並立志為合一而努力生活。神聖的一刻來了！幾位不同教派的信友將兩根木棒結合成十字架的形狀，表示基督藉十字聖架使眾人合而為一；正如梁達材神父（聖母領報堂）在導言所講的肢體雖多，但是我們都是主的身體，基督在聖架上攤開雙手，手腳被針不能動，但祂的心仍然在愛我們。在合一的路上雖仍有很多限制，但如果我們的心願意去愛，像耶穌一樣，那麼愛能克服一切，達至合一。 

    今年參加的人數約五百人，當中有聖公會的蘇以葆主教及約二十多位的神父，修女和牧師參加，希望明年您也會邀請更多的肢體來參加，讓更多肢體認識及體驗「眾人合而為一」! 
 
 
 

會眾對聚會的回應或建議 :                      17.01.2009 

• 十分好， 多辦，我也願意/期望可以出一分力，主內合一。
• 啟發了約五百位會眾，帶領他們邁向基督徒的合一。
• 希望日後能多舉辦此類活動。
• 很好，很喜歡祈禱氣氛，很高興聽見神父說『阿們』，牧師說『阿孟』。彈Organ的很能帶出默想氣氛。Thanks!我會繼續為基督徒合一出力。
• 可以更多講 / 探討基督教與天主教現時對方的狀況，支持這個理念及這個組識!
• 辦得非常好，對合一絶對有幫助。
• 我願意參加一切活動，祈禱，與主同行。

Maybe it was while dreamily looking over the magnificent view of the deep valley from the ancient little Holy Cross Chapel perched 2000 meters above sea level on an outcropping above his home in the Dolomite Mountains of South Tyrol…or possibly during the daily family rosary…or through the encouragement of family and friends, but somehow, the young man, Joseph Freinademetz, was inspired to become a missionary to proclaim Christ’s word in a far-off land.

St. Joseph Freinademetz, SVD, was born on April 15, 1852, the fourth child of Giovanmattia and Anna Maria Freinademetz. The family eked out a living on their poor and simple small farm as did their neighbors. Years later, the little farm house and quiet hamlet of Oies in the Gader Valley changed when Joseph Freinademetz, SVD, was beatified in 1975 by Pope Paul VI and then canonized a saint in the Roman Catholic Church on October 5, 2003, by Pope John Paul II in Rome. Pilgrims regularly find their way to pray at the small parish church of St. Martin where Joseph served as a curate for three years. Or they visit the little mountain chapel high above the family farm or visit his ancestral home. It is a surrounding that seems to speak of prayer and devotion.

恭讀聖馬爾谷福音 4:21-25
那時，耶穌向門徒們說：「人拿燈來，豈是為放在斗底或床下嗎？不是為放在燈台上嗎？因為沒有什麼隱藏的事，不是為顯露出來的；也沒有隱密的事，不是為彰明 出來的。誰若有耳聽，聽吧！」耶穌又向他們說：「要留心你們所聽的：你們用什麼尺度量給人，也要用什麼尺度量給你們，且要多加給你們，因為凡有的，還要給 他；凡沒有的，連他所有的，也要從他奪去。」

—這是基督的福音。

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Mark 4:21-25

21 And he said to them, “Is a lamp brought in to be put under a bushel, or under a bed, and not on a stand? 22 For there is nothing hid, except to be made manifest; nor is anything secret, except to come to light. 23 If any man has ears to hear, let him hear.” 24 And he said to them, “Take heed what you hear; the measure you give will be the measure you get, and still more will be given you. 25 For to him who has will more be given; and from him who has not, even what he has will be taken away.”

—The Gospel of the Lord.
