Jesus came to seek and to save the lost in a world where too often the evil seemed more present than the good. He was given two loving parents, righteous and obedient to God, to serve his needs. He was born into a world not unlike our own. A world of incomprehensible evil.
What did it mean that Jesus was born into such a world? What did it mean for his parents to serve him in such a world? Jospeh and Mary knew great sacrifice as they served Jesus in obedience to a God who led them. What does it mean for us to serve Jesus in today's world? How is God using us to overcome the darkness of this world?
