Joseph

Joseph is one of my favorite saints.  To catch you up, he is the Husband of Mary, the Mother of Jesus. Why do I like Joseph?  Because he never seems to get his plans to go his way.  And he accepts it.  Acceptance is important to me if my agenda is going sideways.  He listens to his inner voice and trusts it as it comes to him in dreams or alone times.  He is a person of few words but plenty of action to help others.  Acceptance, service on behalf of others, action more than words to point to his spiritual practice are all things that I admire.  Happy Feast Day to all those named Joseph.
