In the midst of the uncertainties of this world, God makes promises to us, and gives us signs to accompany them.
He gives us a rather stunning sign in the prophecy in Isaiah to show how much He cares about us, which speaks of a virgin who will give birth to a child, Who will be Immanuel, God with us.
That is the reassurance an angel gives to Joseph, who is inclined to divorce Mary after she becomes pregnant. Joseph is assured this is all God's doing and is part of His plan. God is with us, and He saves us through Jesus Christ. That is the Gospel message that transforms us, that we answer the call to be holy, preparing a place in our hearts to welcome in the King of Glory.
