<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">A reflection for tomorrow with a slightly different take on difficult readings inspired by a thought by Irish- Canadian theologian, The Rev. Canon Herbert O'Driscoll, about Joseph. Your thoughts for improvement would be appreciated as this is for a congregation where I have been asked to be guest preacher by the priest who performed our wedding 15 years ago.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 10pt;line-height:115%;font-size:11pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12pt">The
readings today are tough ones to read and to hear.<span> </span>We have just celebrated Christmas, with
beautiful carols like “Silent Night” and “O Little Town of Bethlehem” and
listened to St. Luke’s story of the birth of Christ including how shepherds
were greeted by angels speaking of peace and good-will to all.<span> </span>It has been a time of celebration and then
today the readings give us a splash of very cold water in the face with the
“Killing of the Innocents” as it is known and the flight of the Holy Family to
Egypt.<span> </span>It feels too soon to abandon
Christmas – after all there are supposed to be 12 days of Christmas – yet these
readings are thrown into the middle of the 12 days.<span> </span>So it bears asking the question “Why?”<span></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 10pt;line-height:115%;font-size:11pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12pt">Possibly
to remind us that Emmanuel – God With Us is not just with us in the tender and
joyful celebratory moments of life like Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, but in
the difficult, soul-searching moments as well, the moments when we grieve, feel
lost and scared, when we need courage.<span> </span>I
think today’s gospel gives us a new role model for the Christmas season and
that person is Joseph.<span> </span>We don’t hear
much about Joseph yet he is such a crucial figure in all that happens during
Christmas and Epiphany.<span> </span>He very much
exemplifies what each one of us on the road of life with its ups and downs and
that is faith and courage.<span> </span><span></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 10pt;line-height:115%;font-size:11pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12pt">We first
meet Joseph when Mary tells him that she is pregnant.<span> </span>This would have been heart-breaking for
Joseph.<span> </span>Pastor Judi<span> </span>Boli provides us with some background around
what being betrothed would have meant in those days:<span></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 26.05pt 10pt 36pt;line-height:115%;font-size:11pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12pt">When
Joseph and Mary were both young children, they were chosen as potential
marriage partners by their parents. . . . This was the first step in the
process that would end in a wedding. . . .<span> </span>when Mary was anywhere from twelve to fifteen
years old, they were ready to take the next step toward their intended marriage
- betrothal. This was the time when the young couple made it publicly
known that they agreed with their parents’ choice for a marriage partner.
This was an extremely serious step. While they waited, families got to
know each other better, temple records were checked to be sure no one was about
to marry a close relative, and the dowry was negotiated. Once the betrothal
was announced, even though a sexual relationship between them was still not
allowed, only a divorce could separate the couple. The final step was
coming up - it would be the wedding itself, when Joseph paraded his beloved
Mary through the town from her father’s house to his house for the ceremony and
the consummation of the marriage.<span> </span>So
here was Joseph looking forward to a wonderful life with Mary when the center
was blown out of his world. His own, his intended wife, his dearly
betrothed Mary came and told him she was pregnant, and by the Holy Spirit yet,
as if he was supposed to believe that. <span></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:115%;font-size:11pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12pt">Joseph,
not being the father of the unborn baby, would have done much soul-searching
about next steps so as not to publicly disgrace Mary.<span> </span>We are told he decided to divorce her quietly
in the presence of two witnesses who were his friends.<span> </span>In the end he did not even do that because of
an angel’s visitation who told him not to be afraid – the same words that were
used with Mary in her encounter with the Angel Gabriel.<span> </span>The angel said “Do not be afraid to take
Mary as your wife, for the child conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. She
shall bear a son.” And that the child was to be named “Jesus”.<span> </span>Joseph had two choices at this point:<span> </span>he could either go ahead with his original
plan to divorce Mary or be courageous, take a step in faith, and raise this
child as his own, and provide a model to <span> </span>Jesus <span> </span>of a good, wise, and courageous loving father.<span> </span>During that time he also taught Jesus the
skills of becoming a carpenter so that Jesus could look after Mary and the rest
of the family should something happen to Joseph in an age when the average life
expectancy would have be 45 years of age. <span> </span>Joseph would become the Guardian of
Jesus.<span> </span><span></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:115%;font-size:11pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12pt">We
are told by religious scholars that at the time of betrothal, <span> </span>Joseph would have been about 30 years of age
while Mary would have been around 13 or 14 years of age.<span> </span>It is Joseph who takes Mary to Bethlehem as
part of the census, trying to find someplace safe and private in order for her
to give birth.<span> </span>And then to experience
the awe and wonder of the shepherds on that night and hearing how they have
been told of the birth of this very special baby by a choir of the heavenly host.<span> </span>While Mary would have pondered all these
things in her heart, I’m pretty sure Joseph was doing his own wondering and
thinking.<span> </span>Then when things should have
been going back to normal and this new family should have been travelling back
to their home, Joseph has another dream where he is told to take his family and
escape from Herod who wishes to kill Jesus and so he takes them to Egypt.<span> </span>In effect this little family have become
refugees, something that so many in our world can identify with. In later life,
Jesus refers to being a refugee when he states that “foxes have holes, birds of
the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head.” <span></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 10pt;line-height:115%;font-size:11pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12pt">The flight to Egypt would have been
one full of fear and terror, possibly done by night to avoid being caught by
soldiers during the day – not easy to do with a two year old toddler. <span> </span>It would have taken much courage on Joseph’s
part to leave behind a home and business he had built up in the two years since
Jesus’ birth (it would have taken the magi two years it is thought to arrive on
the scene as Jesus is not described any longer as a baby but a child in the
Greek) and to start all over again in a strange country with different customs
and language.<span> </span>Jan Richardson writes <span></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 26.05pt 10pt 36pt;line-height:115%;font-size:11pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12pt;color:black">The angel comes bearing the gift of courage to Joseph.<span> </span>Courage to say <i>yes </i>to a life he had
not envisioned. Courage to keep saying <i>yes </i>to this woman, this child,
this path that will take him far beyond anything he has ever imagined for
himself. Courage that will keep coming as grace, as dream, as blessing for his
way.</span><span style="font-size:12pt"><span></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 10pt;line-height:115%;font-size:11pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12pt">The family would have had to travel
light so I imagine that Joseph would have taken just the basic tools he would
have needed to earn a living. Yet Joseph put his trust in God again and went to
Egypt, a place that had given safe haven to an earlier Joseph in the Old Testament.<span> </span>A courageous decision for Joseph to have to
make but he knew that there was a large Jewish community in Alexandria where he
could build a new business and provide a safe haven for Mary and Jesus.<span> </span><span></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 10pt;line-height:115%;font-size:11pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12pt">After a few years in Egypt, Joseph
receives the “all clear” from God to return to Israel as Herod had died so the
security and refuge of Egypt was not required.<span>
</span>However, Joseph was anxious about moving to Judea due to the new ruler’s
reputation and a dream seems to confirm Joseph’s anxieties so he moves his
family to Nazareth.<span> </span>It took courage and
faith for Joseph to use rely on a dream and his own wisdom to ensure Jesus’ and
Mary’s continued safety. <span></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 10pt;line-height:115%;font-size:11pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12pt">I said earlier that Joseph could be a
good role model for us.<span> </span>There were times
when Joseph would have been fearful, had his doubts, felt overwhelmed, all that
each of us have experienced.<span> </span>Joseph
experienced exile, of trying to protect his family, of up-rooting them when
necessary to keep them safe.<span> </span>We know
that Joseph was a man of courage and faith for he trusts God to guide him
appropriately after the first angelic encounter.<span> </span><span></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 10pt;line-height:115%;font-size:11pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12pt">And so Joseph shows us how Emmanuel –
God with us– is with us and for us not just in the times of celebration but in
the darkest and most difficult moments, in times when we need to have the
courage to say “Yes).<span> </span>The Rev. Jan
Richardson writes:<span></span></span></p>

It is not a response we can manufacture by the strength of our will. This <i>yes

to learn to ask for. Some of those graces will find us without our even knowing
we needed them.<span></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 10pt;line-height:115%;font-size:11pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12pt;color:black">And when we say <i>yes w</i></span><span style="font-size:12pt">e emerge scarred,

</span>In the words of The Rev. David Lose, “. . . that </span><span style="font-size:12pt">we might

move towards Epiphany and a star which guides us as it did the magi into
unknown territory and worlds:<span> </span>“</span><i><span style="font-size:12pt;color:black">How are you being invited to say yes to a life you did not choose?
Is there a fear you need to let go of in order to offer this yes? What “no”
might you need to say in order to make way for what God is inviting? How would
it be to ask for the courage you need, and to open yourself to how this courage
wants to meet you in your waking, your dreaming? (Rev Jan Richardson, Women’s
Retreat 2018).<span></span></span></i></p>

you contemplate these questions, I leave you with a blessing written by the
