Glorious St. Joseph, model of all those who are devoted to labor,
obtain for me the grace to work in a spirit of penance for the expiation
of my many sins; to work conscientiously, putting the call of duty above my
inclinations; to work with gratitude and joy, considering it an honor to employ and
develop, by means of labor, the gifts received from God; to work with order, peace,
moderation and patience, without ever recoiling before weariness or difficulties; to
work, above all, with purity of intention, and with detachment from self, having always
Eternal Life before my eyes and the account which I must render of time lost, of
talents wasted, of good omitted, of vain complacency in success, so fatal to the work
of God. All for Jesus, all for Mary, all after your example, O Patriarch Joseph.
Such shall be my watchword in Life and in Eternal Life.
Amen
