“When Joseph woke from sleep, he did as the angel of the Lord commanded him…”
I remember as a child scowling as these words from parents would invade my hearing:
“Do as you’re told.”
Who wants to do as they’re told?
When I am “told” to do something, I would never disagree or argue “out loud,” but in my mind I am figuring out a way to tweak the command ever so slightly.
The Angel commanded
Joseph married pregnant Mary
Remained chaste
Named the boy Jesus!
Just as he had been told…
No scowl.
I want to be like Joseph.
