    Joseph wasn’t so thrilled with the whole idea presented to him at first, but eventually accepted the present as God presented it to him. Joseph is really the forgotten figure of Christmas.

The coming of Christ involved all manner of waiting on God. A young maiden, a dying man and an old widow all ...read more
