Part 2
St.Joseph's natural Magnanimity can be seen in his decisions taken. With such a pious life he has lead he doesnt want to change his nature for something not of his fault. He didnt want to tell anyone his point of view, he didnt want to shame the Girl in public, he didnt want to publicize his innocence and he didnt want to harm the Girl.Knowing very well that contempt of Adultery is Stoning to death in Jews laws, he did not want to make public the Sin and cause damage to the Young girl and his Piousness. Not Knowing that Mother Mary is Carrying The Christ in her Womb, Divine Revealing has not been given to him Yet. With all compassion and Pity in his Pure Heart and being a JUST MAN. HE JUST FORGAVE HER.
Having decided to Forgive her and move on in life, he was to silently get the betrothal nullified not causing any harm to anyone. In every circumstances he didnt cause any damage to himself or God or the Girl. His heart was so pure that clearly shows how God has chosen such a Wonderful person to be his Foster father of Christ. God's saw such a wonderful person's heart troubled that he sent his angel to clarify his doubts.
An Angel came in dreams and said to accept Mary as his wife. Its just a DREAM- how can we relate it directly to our Life?. It shows that it is not the first time angel was sent by God to speak with him and He was Obedient to accept what the Angel says and He accepts God's Plan.
But what is God's Plan St.Joseph wasnt aware of, he did not question the Angel , he did not doubt, he did not say anything but he BLINDLY OBEYED. He did not ask one word to Mother Mary, he just woke up from his Dreams and Accepted her as her Wife and the UNBORN child. Wow... How can be a person so HOLY ?
In the time of uncertainity, in the time of doubts, in the time of bad times, in the time of shame and gossips St.Joseph Pray for us.
