Saint Joseph was not a kind of talkative or self-promoting person, and for this reason he is rather not considered as a man of success by today's media. Yet he attained something that no other father had achieved before him or would be able to achieve in the future: he had been in Heaven before he even got there... And all of that just by looking at Jesus' Holy Face. Joseph knew that the smile of his Savior is worth much more that all the honors and treasures offered by this world. You can be a renown politician, manager or lawyer, and yet your career, money and statements will be good for nothing until the Baby Jesus is proud of you.
Foster-father of our Lord, teach us all how to make Jesus and the holy Virgin Mary happier – not with our words but with our deeds.
--Tomasz, Racibórz
PS. Please pray that the situation in Lybia may be resolved in the peaceful way.
