Everyone has particular needs. Maybe you have children who have left the faith. Maybe you're looking for a job or thinking of starting a business. Maybe you're facing a serious illness. Whatever your needs, you have a friend in St. Joseph. Larry and I have several intentions for the novena and will be praying it along with our daily rosary for our own intentions and those of everyone joining in. How can a novena to the guardian of the Holy Family with the intercession of Mary fail to achieve a response? As St. Teresa of Avila said, "For some years now, I think, I have made some request of [St. Joseph] every year on his feast day and I have always had it granted. If my petition is in any way ill directed, he directs it aright for my greater good."
Join the novena to this powerful man of God who shows the world what it is to be a gentleman and a "just" man.
If you have had a prayer answered through the powerful intercession of St. Joseph, please share it in the comments section. Let's build devotion to this great saint who says not one word in Scripture, but immediately responds when God calls. He is truly a man of action who works to build the city of God. So replace the super-hero action figures in your kids' minds with a real live super-hero of God!
