"But after he had considered this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, "Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her 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" All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet: "The virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel"- which means, "God with us".
Matthew 1:20-23
When my presence was made known to your heart, you were a bit uneasy, but you were happy. You were changed. You kept me to yourself at first. But soon I grew bigger and stronger. I could hear you, I loved you and you loved me. The more I grew the bigger the love became. Sometimes we disagreed, but I still cared for you and you cared for me. Soon my presence was obvious to everyone in your life. You talked about me all the time. You talked to me and kept me close to your heart. You would never again be the same person you were, because of me.
Much like a new birth, Jesus says, "anticipate me. Let me come into your heart and never let me go. Talk with me, cherish me. Your life will be changed and you will have peace. Share my presence with those around you. " God can work with the smallest of faith and transform your life!
