God’s Will
When Joseph woke up, he did what
the angel of the Lord had
commanded him and took
Mary home as his wife.—Matthew 1:24 NIV
CHRISTMAS IS A time of renewal. Pause and ask yourself: How obedient am I to God’s Will and His Word? When defiance or selfish impulses crowd your thoughts, remember an honest, uncomplaining carpenter named Joseph and try to follow the example he has left us.
Heavenly Father, give us the wisdom to know Your Will for us and the obedience to follow.
