GPP 27: Amazing Faith

If you find it hard, Jesus to accept,
Consider Joseph, engaged to a maid,
Whose innocence she had vowed would be kept,
But failed for all whose eyes on her were laid!
An angel assured Joseph she was pure,
But what proved to him the angel was real?
What evidence showed Mary’s fealty sure?
Custom required she her vagina seal!
He could have had her stoned, but he did none;
He could have married, then divorced at once,
But good Joseph went on as planned; became one;
His faith an exemplar for man’s whole bunch!
Would you know an angel who came to you?
Joseph knew, and accepted his words as true!

Promise Made: Matthew 1:21 (An angel speaking to Joseph)—“ ‘She [Mary] will give birth to a son, and you will give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins.’ “ {Brackets added]

“For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16)

“That if you confess with your mouth, ‘Jesus is Lord’, and believe in you heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” (Romans 10:9)
