Reflect
Joseph’s love for Mary and Jesus began in his obedience to God. When angels told him to take Mary into his home, flee Bethlehem for Egypt, and then leave Egypt for Nazareth, Joseph did so without questioning.
Pray
St. Joseph,
sometimes I want
to offer alternatives
to what is clearly
God’s plan for me.
Help me to act
as God desires
rather than questioning
the Almighty’s ways.
Act
Listen to God’s messengers—the ones who come to you in dreams, and the living and breathing ones.
