Saint Joseph, a righteous man, as mentioned in the Bible (Matthew 1, 19-25), was an example of dignity, strength of character and faith. He was not discouraged and never let himself be carried away by a cowardly attitude; he believed in God’s messages, and assumed the high and most noble charge assigned to him, with all the risks and sufferings inherent in it.

Saint Joseph, a righteous man, as mentioned in the Bible (Matthew 1, 19-25), was an example of dignity, strength of character and faith. He was not discouraged and never let himself be carried away by a cowardly attitude; he believed in God’s messages, and assumed the high and most noble charge assigned to him, with all the risks and sufferings inherent in it.
He faced everything discreetly, with humility
and determination. Joseph's silence to the world comes to us with all the
eloquence of love, of his dedication to the Word of God, growing under his
responsibility and protection, so that the promised salvific project could be
achieved; he fulfilled his mandate perfectly.
May we seek to imitate St.
Joseph's attitude to be firm in the faith, even if it involves risks and
suffering, even if we are treated with contempt or derision. Let us not allow doubt seize our soul.
The achievement of the
salvific project in each of us is now our individual responsibility - "take it or leave it". Let us welcome
Jesus and Mary into our home, in our hearts, protect them with all care, let
the Word of God grow in us, as St. Joseph did during his time on Earth.
Saint Joseph, help us. Saint Joseph, pray for us! “Jesus, Mary and Joseph, I give you my heart and my soul.”
