Daily Devotions to St. Joseph - Day 17

[Cathleen]

St. Teresa also writes:  "I would wish to persuade all the world to be devoted to St. Joseph, because I have long experience of the great favors which he obtains from God.  I have never known any soul especially devoted to him that did not always advance in virtue.  I ask, for God's sake, that they who do not believe me will at least make a trial of this devotion.  I cannot believe that favors are not granted to St. Joseph in return for the help which he gave on earth to Jesus and Mary."

St. Joseph, patron of the interior life, lead me to that perfection which God requires of me.

[Gloria]
