Monday Third Week of Lent (St. Joseph)

Feast of St. Joseph

With simplicity comes holiness.  When we focus on the necessities of life we find our life becomes less stressful and much more rewarding.  We see the Divine in all things and all people.  We hold the entire universe in our hands and yet hold nothing.  

Joseph saw the simple plan God commissioned him for.  He knew that the road was going to be difficult because of the righteous and the critiques of the time.
Still, Joseph, kept his word and served Mary and Jesus faithfully.  We don't have to hear from Joseph to know that he was a holy and trusting man.  His actions speak for themselves.  

We are asked to help Jesus with His plan for salvation.  We are asked to live a simple and prayerful life, not with bended knee and folded hands, but, with a heart that bows to the Divine in all things and hands that work for Christ.

Today we remember the work and life of St. Joseph.
