Prayer to Saint Joseph

Glorious Saint Joseph,
pattern of all who are devoted to toil,
obtain for me the grace to toil in the spirit of penance,
in order thereby to atone for my many sins;
to toil conscientiously,
putting devotion to duty before my own inclinations;
to labour with thankfulness and joy,
deeming it an honour to employ and to develop,
by my labour, the gifts that I have received from Almighty
God;
to work with order, peace, moderation, and patience,
without ever shrinking from weariness and difficulties;
to work above all with a pure intention
and with detachment from self,
having always before my eyes the hour of death
and the accounting which I must then render of time ill-
spent,
of talents unemployed,
of good undone,
and of my empty pride in success,
which is so fatal to the work of God.
All for Jesus, all through Mary,
all in imitation of thee, O Patriarch Joseph!
This shall be my motto in life and in death.

Amen.

Prayer of the Day 7 February 2022 | Responsorial Psalm:

Psalms 132:6-7, 8-10

⁶ Listen, we heard of it in Ephrathah, we found it at Forest-Fields.

⁷ Let us go into his dwelling-place, and worship at his footstool.

⁸ Go up, Yahweh, to your resting-place, you and the ark of your strength.

⁹ Your priests are robed in saving justice, your faithful are shouting for joy.

¹⁰ For the sake of your servant David, do not reject your anointed.

Prayer of the Day 7 February 2022 | Gospel:

Mark 6:53-56

⁵³ Having made the crossing, they came to land at Gennesaret and moored there.

⁵⁴ When they disembarked people at once recognised him,

⁵⁵ and started hurrying all through the countryside and brought the sick on stretchers to wherever they heard he was.

⁵⁶ And wherever he went, to village or town or farm, they laid down the sick in the open spaces, begging him to let them touch even the fringe of his cloak. And all those who touched him were saved.
