Joseph Took Mary

It was my first Christmas with Norm.

1967 had been a year of major changes.

God transformed my life on October 22^nd. I surrendered my life to Jesus and trusted Him as Savior and Lord.

Joy filled my heart!

Soon after, we joined Central Baptist Church in Syracuse, NY.

Our Christmas Eve was a special night, holy night. Norm and I exchanged our Christmas gifts before leaving for church services.

We repeated marriage vows at the altar of Central Baptist Church on December 30^th.

Norm took me as his wife.

Joseph took Mary…

 “Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost.

Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a public example, was minded to put her away privily.

But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost.

And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus: for he shall save his people from their sins.

Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying,

Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.

Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife (Matthew 1:18-24 KJV).”
