Matthew 2:13-14 ASV and Matthew 2:20-21 ASV

I'm not sure how I've missed this before, but I just noticed that after these last two dreams it says "Joseph got up". I'm struck by the immediacy of his obedience and also of the guts it took to do that.

I can imagine, somewhat, getting up myself to do what the Lord said, but it's tough to imagine waking up my wife and my toddler and getting them on the road. I'd be SURE I was hearing from God before I did that. :-)

This inspires me to listen for Him and immediately obey.
