Daily Devotions to St. Joseph - Day 5

[Cathleen]

All the faithful should be devoted to St. Joseph in order to obtain the grace of a good death and this for three reasons.

1)  Because Jesus Christ loved him not only as a friend but as a father, and therefore his intercession is more powerful than that of the  other saints.

2)  Because Our Lord, in return for having saved Him from Herod, has given St. Joseph the special privilege of protecting the dying from the snares of the devils.

3)  Because St. Joseph, who died in the company of Jesus and Mary, is the model of a holy death and can obtain this grace for his clients.

St. Joseph, obtain for me that, like thee, I might die in the arms of Jesus and Mary.

[Gloria]

St. Joseph, obtain for me that, like thee, I might die in the arms of Jesus and Mary.

With love!
