Jesus grew up in a human family [Mt 1:18-25]

This is how the birth of Jesus Christ happened:

His Mother Mary was going to be married to Joseph, but before they decided a date to get married, Mary found out she was going to have a baby
through the Holy Spirit.
Joseph was a good and kind man and although he didnt really understand how Mary was pregnant he knew he loved and wanted to care for her
and the child. Joseph didnt know what to do and was very confused and worried.
During a dream an Angel of the Lord appeared to Joesph and said Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife,
because her baby is from the Holy Spirit. She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people
from their sins.
When Joseph woke up, he did what the angel of the Lord had told him to do and he took Mary as his wife. When the baby was born Joseph gave
his son the name Jesus.
All this happened because God wanted a Son on Earth and because Mary and Joseph were such wonderful people who believed in him. God felt
they would be the best Earthly parentsand he was right they loved and cared for Jesus and God was happy his Son was on Earth.
Jesus was known as Immanuel.which means GOD IS WITH US from this time onward.
