Daily Devotions to St. Joseph - Day 6

[Cathleen]

According to St. John Damascene, "God gave St. Joseph the love, the care and the authority of a father over Jesus.  He gave him the affection of a father that he might guard Him with great love; the solicitude of a father that he might watch over Him with great care; and the authority of a father that he might feel sure that he would be obeyed in all that he arranged concerning this Son."

St. Joseph, be always a father to us, and grant that we may always be thy faithful children.

[Gloria]

O Glorious St. Joseph, behold I choose thee today for my special patron in life and at the hour of my death.  Preserve and increase in me the spirit of pray and fervor in the service of God.  Remove far from me every kind of sin; obtain for me that my death may not come upon me unawares, but that I may have time to confess my sins sacramentally, and to bewail them with a most perfect understanding and with a most sincere contrition, in order that I may breathe forth my soul into the hands of Jesus and Mary. Amen
