Slightly adapted from a post in one of my old blogs
Today
is the Solemnity of St. Joseph, Husband of Mary. People love to quote
the saints, but we cannot quote St. Joseph. None of his words have been
preserved.
I take that back about not being able to quote St. Joseph.
We cannot quote his words, but we can, and should, "quote" his devotion
to Jesus and Mary.
St. Joseph was the first saint I ever heard of, but that was because of the children's aspirins! LOL!
I like simple, homely {homely as in homelike, not, definitely not, as in unattractive] images. I love to think about St. Joseph walking the floor when the Baby Jesus was teething.
I am a Jewish convert to Catholicism, blogging on a variety of subjects. The motto for this blog is: "Rejoice always, pray constantly, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you." 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18, Revised Standard Version, Catholic Edition.
