Having given birth to two beautiful children, I did not ride on the back of a donkey nearly 90 miles to give birth to either one of them. I often wonder, especially during this time of year what was going through Mary's mind? She was just a child herself. She was engaged to be married, and she was pregnant. Poor Joseph, what he must have been thinking? Or I can imagine a conversation with some of Joseph's friends. Wait, your fiance` is pregnant?
Isaiah 7:14 Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: The virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel. Really Joseph? Do you believe that?
Matthew 1:23 The virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel-which means God with us.
I am wondering how much love Mary and Joseph received from friends? I wonder how much support?
God's plan and purpose, from the beginning...
