Mt 1:18-25

This is how the birth of Jesus Christ came about.
When his mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, but before they lived together, she was found with child through the Holy Spirit.
Joseph her husband, since he was a righteous man, yet unwilling to expose her to shame, decided to divorce her quietly.
Such was his intention when, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, "Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary your wife into your home.
For it is through the Holy Spirit that this child has been conceived in her.
She will bear a son and you are to name him Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins."
All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet: Behold, the virgin shall be with child and bear a son, and they shall name him Emmanuel, which means "God is with us."
When Joseph awoke, he did as the angel of the Lord had commanded him and took his wife into his home.
He had no relations with her until she bore a son, and he named him Jesus.

잠에서 깨어난 요셉은 주님의 천사가 명령한 대로 아내를 맞아들였다. (마태 1,24)
어떻게 이렇게 순수하게 하느님의 뜻을 따를 수 있을까요?
요셉의 하느님에 대한 믿음을 볼 수 있습니다.
저도 요셉의 순수한 믿음을 본받을 수 있었으면 합니다.
그 믿음을 하느님께 청합니다.

전능하신 하느님, 죄의 멍에를 메고 구원을 기다려 온 저희가 다시 맞는 성자의 탄생으로 옛 종살이에서 벗어나게 하소서.

주님, 이 시대에 정의와 평화가 꽃피게 하소서. (시편 72(71),7ㄴㄷ 참조)
