“Sorrow to Salvation” (Matthew 2:13-23)

The story of Jesus’ early life is one fraught with turmoil and transition. So we get a glimpse of what His life and ministry will be like later on. Yet through it all, Matthew gives us a beautiful snapshot of willing obedience in the face of turmoil. Joseph and Mary display pure trust in the word of God. Even though they had to uproot and move out of the country, God provided for them.

In a few circumstances of prophetic fulfillment, Matthew shows us that all of Scripture points to Jesus as our Savior. Trust God. Pray. Seek Him with all your heart.
