Joseph

Matt:1:24 And took Mary as his wife.  Oh! What a man is Joseph.  A good man A God fearing man - a God oriented man Obedient to God's word Full of compassion and love to Mary No questions to God.  Did not consider the ridicule and blame he was about to face from the society as any significant considering his love to Mary or his devotion to God.  The silent doer. No talking.  Received no words of appreciation. Continued to do what he was asked to do.  Nothing more was written about him in the Bible. Considering the position he is given - Father of Messiah. No glory. Just silent doing of what he is expected to do.  In contrast to the husbands and fathers of today (including me) who wants to be in the limelight. In the center. Of his family and his own world.  Lord as a husband, as a father I have been self seeking. I repent. Forgive me.  Image credit:  https://www.jw.org/en/library/books/bible-stories-lessons/11/gabriel-visits-m...
