O, Saint Joseph, you whose power extends over all our needs, who knows how to make possible for us the most impossible of things, open your fatherly eyes to your children’s interests. Amen. Saint Joseph, adoptive father of our Lord Jesus Christ, and true spouse of the Holy Virgin Mary pray for us and the dying. Amen. O prudent and just St. Joseph, intercede for us before the Holy Trinity. Amen. 📸 @dario.bonds 🗓️ November 23rd, 2021 #Jose #Joseph #Memories #consecrationtostjoseph #catholic (at Bogotá-Colombia, D.C) https://www.instagram.com/p/CW1BKUplZs1/?utm_medium=tumblr

“He made him lord of his household, and prince over all his possessions.” Many saints have often lovingly referred to St. Joseph as their “lord.” In using this term, no saint intends to claim that Joseph is God. Joseph is not God. Saints sometimes use the term “Lord” when addressing Joseph out of respect, as is done when addressing dignitaries and rulers. Saints are pious and love to express their filial relationship to Mary and Joseph in devotional language. Mary, for example, is called Madonna. (“Madonna” derives from Latin mea domina, that is, “My Lady,” the feminine form of “lord.”) Referring to Joseph as “lord” has biblical foundations as well. Remember Joseph of the Old Testament? Well, his brothers end up calling him their “lord” (Gen. 44) when they encounter him again and he saves their family from famine. For us, St. Joseph is more than a brother; he is our noble spiritual father. He is our living spiritual father and lord. 🙏🏼 In the words of St. Alphonsus Liguori, Let us pray: “Noble St. Joseph, I rejoice that God found you worth of holding this eminent position whereby, established as the father of Jesus, you saw the one whose orders Heaven and earth obey subjecting himself to your authority.” Amen. #stjosephmovement #consecrationtostjoseph https://www.instagram.com/p/CNYUg-KAVkS/?igshid=s38p30c5xdjb

St. Joseph’s First Dream: In Matthew 1:20-21, Joseph is told not be afraid to take Mary as his wife, because she has conceived by the Holy Spirit. #stjoseph #stjosephdream #consecrationtostjoseph #catholicstore #catholicgiftshop #catholicbookstore #catholicshopping #giftideas #catholicshop #orangecountycatholicstore #closestcatholicstore #catholicstorenearme #orangecountycatholicgiftshop #bestcatholicstore #catholicgifts #uniquecatholicgifts.com #uniquecatholicgifts (at JMJ’s Catholic Books and Gifts) https://www.instagram.com/p/CARll0IDRup/?igshid=1bzmxxbabrw92

Glorious St. Joseph, model of all those who are devoted to labour, obtain for me the grace to work conscientiously, putting the call of duty above my many sins; to work with thankfulness and joy, considering it an honour to employ and develop, by means of labour, the gifts received from God; to work with order, peace, prudence and patience, never surrendering to weariness or difficulties; to work, above all, with purity of intention, and with detachment from self, having always death before my eyes and the account which I must render of time lost, of talents wasted, of good omitted, of vain complacency in success so fatal to the work of God. All for Jesus, all for Mary, all after thy example, O Patriarch Joseph. Such shall be my motto in life and death. Amen. • Artist: Gwyneth Thompson-Briggs #feastday #stjosephtheworker #saintjoseph #consecrationtostjoseph https://www.instagram.com/p/B_qkkR8AhI3/?igshid=glup2mc03l0k
