Opening Prayer

Gracious God, your angel said to Joseph that he would name the baby Jesus, because he would save his people from their sins.    I pray to experience all of your salvation.  

In Jesus’ name, Amen

READING:

Joseph often seems a shadowy support role in the nativity scene. I spend some time with him today, appreciating his integrity, valuing his ability to discern and recognising that God gave him a message of encouragement.

Joseph, although he had made up his mind, was prepared to let his dream speak. I ask for the grace to be able to bring my decisions before God, allowing my heart to be shaped and my mind to be changed.
