Novenas

Joseph 6

Meditative Novena to St Joseph 

This powerful novena consists in turning to Joseph and honoring him by meditating on these four points. It does not matter where or when during the day.

1. St. Joseph’s faithfulness to God’s grace. Think of the times in Joseph’s life when he responding generously to God’s call and inspirations. Thank God, and ask St Joseph’s help in responding faithfully to God’s invitations and grace.

2. St. Joseph’s fidelity to prayer, listening to God, and virtue. Reflect on what Joseph must have been like, the way he carried out his daily labor, how he led his family in prayer, what kind of virtue must have marked his daily living. Thank God and ask through St Joseph to be faithful to virtue, prayer, and the Christian life.

3. St. Joseph’s love for Mary. Imagine the house of Nazareth where Joseph lived with Jesus and Mary. Let his care for her impress itself on your heart. See how he prayed with her, provided for her, and shared with her the responsibility of raising Jesus. Thank God and ask through St Joseph the grace to love Mary and to remain close to her all through your life.

4. St. Joseph’s love for Jesus. Imagine how much Joseph must have loved Jesus. What was his heart when Jesus was born, when he took his first steps, said his first words, went to the Temple for the first time, finished building his first table…. Thank God and ask through St Joseph the grace to love Jesus as he did.

This novena, going back to Father Louis Lallemant, S. J. (1588-1635), has proven to be highly efficacious.

    Thank you

  13. God gave us the Gifts of Love, Hope, Peace & Joy — that is his very own Son, the Prince of Peace, to come into this world to save us!

    O Saint Joseph, please pray to God and ask God to give us His Very Own Son again into our family because we are desperately needed God’s True Love, Hope, Peace & Joy in us so that everyone will know how to unite with each other to build a good, happy family!

    O Saint Joseph, we are desperately praying to you & imploring you to assist us with all of our difficulties, hopelessnesses, & helplessnesses in our family.

    Please pray specially for Joseph because for the past 30 years of his life, his unstable personalities, emotional cripple, dull mind, stubborn heart, hard head, high on anger, & violent temper have mostly destroyed most of his life already!

    Joseph is so addictive to drugs, cocaine, sex, lying, stealing, gambling & all evil ways.

    He has been in and out of jail so many times already. Wherever he is, he would bring terror, abusive, agony, pain and shame to us all & we cannot take it anymore!

    We are so tired & exhausted of desperately praying for Joseph Hung for more than 30 years already and it seems like it is so hard for God to hear our prayers & cries.

    Life is very short for us all! Joseph is already more than 40 years old now & I don’t know what the remainder of his life will be like because he does not know what he wants in his life! He is a wanderer!

    Saint Joseph, if God hear our prayers, then please ask God to change Joseph not temporary but permanently for good, for the glory of God.

    Or if not that way, then please ask God to do something or to let him die like God granted the wishes of Saint Rita of Casia for her 2 sons!

    Please pray with us, Saint Joseph, if possible, for God’s mercy to forgive all of his sins and heal him emotionally, mentally, psychologically, spiritually and physically!

    O God, lead us not into temptation but deliver us from all evil.
    Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now & at the hour of our death, Amen.
    Saint Joseph, the Holy Patriarch of the Holy Family, pray for Joseph.

    Thank you God, thank you Our Holy Mary, Mother of God, & thank you Saint Joseph!

  14. Prayer Request for a New Special Friendship

    This special friendship, while blossoming, is getting much interference especially from the one who is deeply jealous of it. May God protect it, bless it and let any fears and awkwardness dissolve so it can be as blessed and natural as God meant it to be so that there is always peace when they are together. The she is solid in her faith and the he is growing in his faith (the reason for his connection with her…he’s never seen the real thing) but is feeling depressed about his past and without hope. May he treasure this new gift and may God guide her to give him the hope he needs to fly.

  15. Dear St. Joseph. I BEG you to intercede for me this day. Please ask God to restore my relationship with J and let it grow even more. Please let me hear from J TODAY as a sign of hope that we will be reconciled! I desperately need your visible and speedy help, St. Joseph. J tells everyone how sad & alone he is; if he would just accept my love and care, he wouldn’t be and I, too, would not be sad & alone anymore. I do not know what caused the distance between us. J is the one who is distant – I am still trying so hard to stay connected and be encouraging and supportive of him. I don’t know why he would turn away from me. It makes me feel as if he thinks I’m not good enough for him (or maybe he thinks he’s not good enough for me? But I assure you he’s everything I ever wanted and more). Please St. Joseph, ask God to remove whatever obstacle is in J’s way concerning our relationship and let him see that I would truly and completely love him if he would let me. I’ve never wanted ANYTHING more in my life than for J & I to be together, for our relationship to grow, and for us to eventually marry and have children. Since my receiving this blessing would be the greatest gift the Lord could grant me, I promise, dear St. Joseph, that if God does bring us together in love, that I will show my sincere appreciation in an equally grand way. I will attend daily Mass from that point forward in constant thanksgiving for this blessing, I will bring J to God through faith and I will always honor and invoke you, St. Joseph as my special patron. PLEASE DO NOT FAIL ME, dear St. Joseph. I have prayed so many novenas and petition prayers for this. I am trying SO hard to keep faith and I am putting my trust in you because I know how much Jesus loves you. You have such a special and powerful ability to interceded for those who come to you. It’s been said that because Jesus obeyed you while on earth, he now listens to your prayers with great attention and grants the petitions of those for whom you pray. Please, St. Joseph, earnestly pray for me and my intention. I do not feel worthy of such a favor, but I humbly, urgently, tearfully, desperately come to you in hopes that you will have pity on me and raise my prayers to Jesus on my behalf. Thank you, St. Joseph, for hearing my petition. AMEN

We wish to start a family and we are unable to do so where we are for lack of space for the baby. We cannot take less because the seller needs the money for a new home she cannot afford to let it go for less. Please bless us with the loan which will be a start to our family and our real life together. Amen.

  21. Sr Kathryn my priest is a stubborn highly~strung man, who when i snapped at him once for making a gesture that seemed like he was being frustrated with me very much, despite several apologies and trying to mend fences, had a hunted look on his face as though I was a crank for the first year. I tried to say sorry but he blanked me once and another time refused to shake hands at the back of church after Mass. Even after a quiet word from the closest person in the parish to him, he still treats me with an air of resignation “you, again” almost. Pray for a healing to God and St Joseph please .

Life itself brings crosses, but God loved us so much as to send his only beloved son Jesus to suffer as a human being to save the world and is with each and every person with his grace and mercy and strength. All suffering, said Pope John Paul is redemptive when offered in union with Jesus Christ’s suffering and death and RESURRECTION and opening heaven for us where there will be no more suffering and tears but only happiness with our Loving and tender God. Pray much. I and Sr. Kathrn carry you in our hearts and prayers and sufferings offered to God for you. May he grant you peace. Pray with serene faith to St Joseph. Tomorrow is his feast day. Love and prayers, Sr. Sharon and Sr.Kathyrn

    • Peace.

      Why don’t you ask St. Joseph to help you see how you can grow and blossom with respect to your desire. St. Joseph learned early on that he needed to be part of the solution, and often it meant alot of inner work and change on his part, his plans, his desires, his feelings…. Ultimately St. Joseph will prepare you for the dream for which you were created. Sometimes that dream, planted in us by God, is a surprise even to us!

    • Yulius,

      I often think St. Joseph thought about inferiority sometimes. After all, he was living with God and God’s mother! He was definitely no comparison! And I think that is what he might have come to in his reflections. That he didn’t need to be compare himself to others. Instead he had to be himself, the man for whom God had a mission–to care for his Son and Mary. He was willing to learn from his Son even as he taught him many things a father teaches a child. He was willing to learn from Mary even as she humbly asked his advice, help, and protection. God has a mission for you. He created you with great love for a purpose. He filled you with special gifts. Some people have talents galore. Others don’t seem to. But what really counts is the spirit with which we live our lives and love others. Joseph after Jesus was born had to become very attuned to God’s workings in his life in order to be the father on earth Jesus needed. You will also if you wish to live entirely your unique call. I will pray for you to Joseph. Sr. Kathryn
