PRAYERS TO OUR LADY

Daily Devotions to St. Joseph - Day 8

In the Gospels, St. Joseph is called "the Just." What is meant by a just man? St. Peter Chrysologus says "It means a perfect man -- one who possesses all virtues." St. Joseph was already holy before his marriage, but how much must his sanctity have increased after his union with the Blessed Virgin? The example of his holy spouse sufficed to sanctify him. Since Mary is the dispenser of all graces which God grants to men, in what profusion must she have showered them down on her spouse who she loved so much and by whom she was so tenderly loved?

St. Joseph, increase my devotion to thy Beloved Spouse, Mary

Oh, St. Joseph,do assist me by your powerful intercession, and obtain for me from your divine Son all spiritual blessings, through Jesus Christ, Our Lord. So that, having engaged here below your heavenly power, I many offer my thanksgiving and homage to the most loving of Fathers. Oh, St. Joseph, I never weary contemplating you, and Jesus asleep in your arms. I desire not approach while He reposes near your heart. Press Him in my name and kiss His fine head for me and ask Him to return the kiss when I draw my dying breath. St. Joseph, Patron of the departing souls, pray for me and my family.Amen
