Joseph's Boy

When we went to church last Sunday, the minister was talking about Joseph and Jesus. It inspired me to write these thoughts..

They said he was Josephs boy, son of Mary and the immaculate conception.

Jesus was raised in a home filled
with love, the teaching of Gods word.
He helped his father with daily life chores, went to the synagogs where he talked, learned and challanged the scribes about the writings in the bible.

They said he was Josephs boy as he grew to be a young man of stature and grace. His light shown as he traveled dusty roads of country and towns, preaching Gods word to the multitudes.

They said he claimed to be the son of God, as they tortured and nailed him to the cross on Mount Calavry.

Yes, Jesus was Josephs boy, the son of God, who died to save man kind from their transgressions and sins.

Where would we be today without Josephs and Marys boy, Gods only son?? I Wonder

Mary Grace,you remind us of Jesus as a child, the boy of Joseph and Mary -- a perspective we often forget or overlook -- I shutter to think of where mankind would be without Him -- as an old Christmas song Eddy Arnold sang proclaims," the light of love began to grow, one Christmas eve, so long ago" -- thanks for sharing this important thought with us -- peace and love my friend -- Jon Michael

Joseph's Boy - we probably don't give Joseph all the credit that he deserves, but you just did.
