Day 18

The Escape to Egypt Matthew 2:13-15

When they had gone, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream. “Get up,” he said, “take the child and his mother and escape to Egypt. Stay there until I tell you, for Herod is going to search for the child to kill him.”

So he got up, took the child and his mother during the night and left for Egypt, where he stayed until the death of Herod. And so was fulfilled what the Lord had said through the prophet: “Out of Egypt I called my son.”


Take a moment for these words to sit at peace within you.

It is not our task to analyse them, but to notice what rises within us.


Prayer

Often, I feel I am on the run, trying to escape my fears. Help me Lord to trust you in all things. Amen.
