St. Joseph's Broken Heart

This morning during Mass someone mentioned how Joseph must have felt when he heard that Mary was pregnant.

I never thought of this before.  Imagine how you would have felt.  How can this be? Well, it could be like how everyone else gets pregnant. Talk about being kicked in the stomach.

Fortunately, he didn't react by wanting to hurt her as much as he thought she had hurt him.  Before he even knew the reason for her pregnancy, his reaction was to protect her.

God chose wisely.  Joseph was the perfect foster father.
