God's at work ....through angels Matthew 1:19-21

Today, in Canada, when you find out that your fiancee is pregnant you're hurt but neither she or the other guy go to jail for it but in Joseph's day she could have been stoned to death for such an embarrassment!  (I don't know why they picked on the woman the guy was just as guilty!)  Maybe Joseph understood that there had to be another party involved I don't know.  What we do know is that he tried to minimize it by calling off the wedding. Yet God had another plan and in this case He sent an angel to talk to Joseph.  What faith to believe that Jesus was conceived by the Holy Spirit!...and to believe that He would save His people from their sins.  Joseph, an ordinary guy, trying to do what was right had an angel experience and a calling to a high degree of faith in in own personal/family life.  This is a taste of the Kingdom of God.
