Read

But after he had pondered these things, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, “Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to embrace Mary as your wife, for the One conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. She will give birth to a Son, and you are to give Him the name Jesus, because He will save His people from their sins.”

Matthew 1:20-21 (BSB)

Think

Joseph was a carpenter in Nazareth. An angel told him in a dream to take Mary as his wife and to name the baby Jesus, a name that means “the LORD saves.” Joseph obeyed.

Talk about it

What does Jesus save us from?

Pray

Jesus, thank You for saving me from my sins.
