I've heard my pastors say it several times, but I had this experience so powerfully when I was preparing for my Dec 30th sermon. That insight, re: the degree to which Joseph loved baby Jesus is continuing to influence my reflections for this week's sermon on the Transfiguration & God/Father speaking to the now adult Jesus.

"After more than sixty years of almost daily reading of the Bible, I never fail to find it always new and marvelously in tune with the changing needs of everyday." -Cecil B. DeMille (1881-1959) American Movie Producer It is indeed encouraging to know that God's work in our lives is never complete, despite how our lives can become limited by age, health, etc. I read this quote yesterday that really struck me (I was working on the Missions’ monthly Prayer Update, which I edit while the real editor is on mat leave for a year).
