PRAYERS TO OUR LADY

Daily Devotions to St. Joseph - Day 26

"The boy Jesus remained in Jerusalem and his parents did not know it" (Luke 2:43). How great was the pain of St. Joseph when Jesus was lost in the temple! Joseph was accustomed to the enjoyment of the sweet presence of his beloved Savior. What then must have been his sorrow when he was deprived of it for three days. Without knowing whether he should evermore find Jesus, and most painful of all, without knowing why he had lost Him. How great, on the other hand, ws Joseph's joy when he found Jesus and realized that the absence of the Child did not arise from any neglect on his part but from a zeal for the glory of the Father.

St. Joseph, through the merits of the pains which thou did suffer at losing Jesus, obtain for me tears to weep always for my sins.
