God Asks the Unthinkable

December 18, 2022 • Pastor Phil Burdoin • Matthew 1:18–25

We will take a look at Joseph's life and faith. He was a man who was committed to doing the "right thing". He wanted to both honor God and protect Mary by the things that he did. But God intervened and asked Joseph to step out in faith and to do the unthinkable by taking Mary home to be his wife. Christmas tells us that God does not always work in the way that we think he would. Just as he asked Joseph to do the unthinkable, he sometimes asks us to do the same with our lives. He asks us to step out in faith to follow Him into some uncertain and challenging situations. God asks us to change our world view-He wants us to adopt different values and live by a different perspective in our world. Following God’s plan for our lives requires the faith that sometimes causes us to look foolish to the rest of the world. We will ask each of us to consider what is God asking us to do today that seems foolish or unthinkable and are we willing to obey Him just as Joseph did.
