As cowboys, whether on the ranching or the rodeo side, you aren't afraid of hard work and you know how to be tough.
When it comes to difficult personal situations, now matter how tough we are, it isn't always easy to 'do the hard thing.' When is the last time you gave a sincere apology when you messed up? When is the last time you admitted you messed up in the first place? I think pride sometimes makes us feel like doing the right thing is a sign of weakness.
It's actually just the opposite and it's Joseph in another part of the Bible's teachings on the birth of Christ, that shows us this. The verses in the second chapter of Luke are often referred to as “The Christmas Story” but in another part of the teachings about Jesus's birth in Matthew 1, Jospeh shows us what it really means to do the hard thing.
