Thanking Mary & Joseph

As we approach Christmas, I can’t help but think of how much pain Mary and Joseph so willingly suffered for Jesus during His life time.  I can’t even imagine watching my son suffer so!  We love our children so much!  I am not saying that it makes me a great person, but if I am honest, I don’t know if I could be as strong, courageous and selfless as they were…  When one of my children is sick, I worry about them constantly.  If one of them were crucified before my eyes,I just don’t think I could do it!  But Mary did, she stayed strong for Jesus because she loved Him and our Father so much.  And Joseph did so much for Jesus!  How wise was our Father when He chose them! 

Because they loved our Lord Jesus, and our Father, they believed in their Promises 🙂

And  because of their willingness to suffer any measure in order to see our Father’s plan for Redemption come true, it did!  How Blessed are we ?
