I was thinking....

I was just thinking about Mary. I wondered if I was Mary's friend would I have stuck by her when she got pregnant? Would I have tried to talk Joseph into not to go through the marriage? Would I have supported her or treated her like she should be shamed? Would I have hidden that I was still her friend or let everyone know? Would I have stuck up for her by relaying her story of an angel visit and that God told her she was going to be the mother of His own son? Would I have listened with awe about what an angel looked like? Would I have been jealous? Would I believed her that shepherds came, or wise men? Would I have been excited that this was happening? Would I have helped her out when she came back from Bethlehem? I was just thinking about Mary..... What kind of friend would I be and what kind of friend am I now? I was just thinking....
