His Higher Purpose

It’s often in times of great disappointment that God gives us opportunities to discover His higher purpose for our lives.

Some time after Mary’s engagement to Joseph, she came to him bearing unthinkable news. She was pregnant—and she claimed it was the result of a great miracle. Joseph’s heart must have felt crushed. There were no good options—marry an unrighteous woman and endure the blame or publically shame this woman he’d respected and cared for. How could God have anything to do with this bizarre turn of events?

As Joseph tried to sleep that night, an angel came to tell him to believe Mary—and whole-heartedly partner with her in this unique calling to be the earthly parents of God’s Son. Joseph could have responded with disbelief or bitterness. Yet through his faith, God accomplished an incomparably higher purpose that would bless mankind for all eternity.

Activity: Take time out of your day to read a favorite storybook to a child in your life.
