No one is exempt from the longing to be applauded and affirmed. And when we think we deserve the glory for doing good things, it's easy to seek ways to turn the spotlight on ourselves. Interestingly, God takes issue not with our good deeds but with our efforts to heap the credit upon ourselves. Which leads us to the question, if it’s not me, who should get the glory?

When Joseph, a good and just man, learned that his betrothed, Mary, was with child he was unwilling to put her to shame and resolved to divorce her quietly. As he was considering these things, an angel of the Lord appeared to him and told him to “not fear to take Mary as your wife, for that which is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit” (Matthew 1:20). This son was to be named Jesus “for he will save his people from their sins” (Matthew 1:21).
This son has come and this Christmas Eve we celebrate his offer of forgiveness to all and declare the one name under heaven by which men and women can be saved. While like Joseph this news can catch many off-guard, we pray that they will respond in obedient faith like him.
THEME - GRACE
1. A divine beginning (v. 18)
2. A good man (v. 19)
3. A call to respond (vs. 20-23)
4. The choice is yours (vs. 24-25)
