Daily Devo | The High Cost of Love (Holiday Replay, Matthew 1:18-25)

In this holiday replay from last year, we see that Joseph faced a difficult choice -- the woman he loved was pregnant and the child was not his. What should he do? Though he likely felt betrayed, he chose a path that would spare Mary of any additional shame, even at great cost to himself. God gave Jesus parents who would raise Jesus in the path of true righteousness, a path of faith, mercy, and self-sacrificial love.

We will resume new devotionals in the new year that track with our congregational read-through of the New Testament.
