Prayer to Saint Joseph
O Saint Joseph, whose protection is so great, so strong, so prompt in all difficulties, I place in you all my interests and desires. I ask you to obtain for me the grace I seek today, and to grant me the strength to bear my trials with courage. Guardian of the Holy Family, and foster father of Jesus, I seek your intercession and your example of humility and obedience to God's will. Teach me to accept God's plan, to work faithfully in daily duties, and to live in trust and prayer. Saint Joseph, patron of workers, pray for me, and for all who seek to do God's will. May I always honor you by a life of fidelity to Christ and love for Mary. Amen.
