Matthew 2:11
On coming to the house, they saw the child with his mother Mary, and they bowed down and worshiped him. Then they opened their treasures and presented him with gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh.
Darlene N. from Somewhere said:
This verse touches me, as it is the first account of this childs greatness. three men come bareing gifts and worshiping your new born child. Just the amazing joy that must have filled the parents hearts. Josephs especially, after having been obediant to the spirit and remaining with Mary, after finding out she was pregnant.

Matthew 1:24
When Joseph woke up, he did what the angel of the Lord had commanded him and took Mary home as his wife.
Darlene N. from Somewhere said:
I love the heart of Joseph. He trusted and was faithful to the Holy Spirit, in spite of the circumstances. A pregnant wife, carrying a child that was not his. He heard the Spirit of God and had the strength and faith to trust and keep her as his wife. How often do we struggle at times with circumstances of our own? When the Holy Spirit tells us to move in a direction that seems out of our comfort zones, do we struggle with trusting what we've heard? Do we trust and move anyways? My desire is to have a heart like Josephs, and move in what ever direction the Holy Spirit calls... Always.
