Good morning and happy Tuesday. So we all know the story of Mary. We hear it this time year around Christmas. But what about Joseph? What about the man named Joseph?The angel of the Lord came to Mary one time. He came to Joseph four times. Joseph had a very big role in the bringing up of Jesus. He had a huge test of faith in continuing on with Mary. How would it go over today if a man's promised wife was to come to him and say she was pregnant with someone else's child? It wouldn't be so hard to believe in this day and time as it was back then. But it was a big deal to be betrothed to someone and to be carrying a child. There was a lot that Joseph had to endure. We really don't hear much about Joseph in this whole story. And I think that's why I'm so drawn to it. He was a man really working behind-the-scenes. I've never heard of the hail Joseph Or heard a prayer to him at all. And I think that's just the way it should be; doing the very best you can do when God calls you to do it. Never making a big to do. Simply being faithful and steadfast in what God calls you to do. Today I would simply ask that you just be still and know that He is God. He has great plans for you and your life, and they may not be the headliner of the big show. But they may be just as important as anything that's in the marquee lights. Keep the faith and follow God's plan. In love always. <><
