ST. JOSEPH IN OUR SPIRITUAL
AND APOSTOLIC LIFE
01
Let us pause and wait for St. Joseph to let us hear his
voice. This is his beautiful month. (Letters 208)
02
St. Joseph is still the choir master who gives the pitch. But
sometimes he lets some jarring notes come through.
During this month, however, he wants all our notes to be
right and melodious so that they will lift our souls heavenward, where
harmony reigns supreme. (Letters 206)
03
We will say to our great Patriarch: Here we are. We are
all yours, and you be all ours. (Letters 208)
04
Joseph, show us the way, support us at every step, lead
us where Divine Providence wants us to arrive. (Letters
208)
05
Whether the journey is long or short, smooth or rough,
whether or not the goal is within the range of human eye,
whether our pace is fast or slow, with you, Joseph, we are
sure of always going the right way. (Letters 208)
06
A son of St. Joseph needs not so much to learn the
refinements of the mother tongue as to learn the language
of the saints. (Letters 225)
07
Let us go to glorious St. Joseph, guide and teacher of the
spiritual life, peerless model of the interior and hidden life.
(Writings 226)
