JOY IN THE JOURNEY! Advent 2020 Devotional 9

December 9, 2020
Matthew 1:18-21

CONCEPTION AND BIRTH OF JESUS
What would our world be if Mary had not conceived her child? Can we even bear to think about that? Joseph and Mary were a young betrothed couple in love. Suddenly, Mary found herself with Child. They were shocked as they had not come together. An angel of the Lord came to Joseph and told him the Child was conceived of the Holy Spirit. The angel also told him the Child would be a Son and they would call him Jesus and He would save His people from their sins.

Now, if that happened today would anyone believe it?

Prayer
Dear Lord, Thank you for Mary and Joseph. Lord, Bless all the Parents and Grandparents as they raise their families in these troubling times. Help us all to be prayerful in this season of our Saviors birth. Amen
