Matthew 1:20Amplified
Bible, Classic Edition (AMPC)
20 But as he was thinking this over, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared
to him in a dream, saying, Joseph, descendant of David, do not be afraid to
take Mary [as] your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of (from, out
of) the Holy Spirit.
Feeling
overwhelmed as I look at the stack of work placed on my desk I wanted to
cry. As I looked at the stack I was
worried that I would not complete the task before the end of the next day. My friend and colleague encouraged me to take
it ‘one tree at a time, don’t look at the forest.’
Can you imagine
what went through Joseph’s heart when he realized Mary was pregnant. I am sure he must have also felt worried and
concerned knowing he didn’t impregnate her.
Then we see God intervenes on behalf of Mary and encourages Joseph to
marry her.
Today as
you start your day, I want to encourage you ‘do not be afraid’ the Lord has
never failed me or forsaken me, He will not forsake you either. The Holy Spirit is within each one of us
helping and encouraging us today.
Prayer
Lord
Jesus thank You that You are with us each and every day, thank You for
encouraging us not to be afraid and to take each day as it comes our way. Bless our hands and minds with Your loving
kindness. Amen
