Saint Joseph, Pillar of Families

I didn't use to pray novenas.  I always thought that praying directly to God was better.  But I read this passage from the Bible: "The continual prayer of a just man availeth much." - James 5:16 I thought of the matter more and now I see that novenas are a humble way of praying.  It is asking those closest to Jesus (and holiest) people who walked the earth, to pray for me.

Inspiration for Today

God has a master plan for your life and it's the best possible plan.  You cannot even think or imagine what God has in store for you!  If only you believe and let Him take you there.


Have you ever used one of those pocketbooks where you choose how the story goes by choosing for the protagonist? Well life is a bit like that except you have the option of having the author of the book Himself choose the best ever ending for you! 


God's plan for you includes not only your good but the good of others!  He has intricately woven a complex roadmap for significance and meaning. Let's have faith!
