Translations:Saint Joseph/7/en

From TSL Encyclopedia

I don’t recall up to this day ever having petitioned him for anything that he has failed to grant.... With this glorious saint I have experience that he helps in all our needs and that the Lord wants us to understand that just as he was subject to St. Joseph on earth—for since bearing the title of father, being the Lord’s tutor, Joseph could give the Child command—so in heaven God does whatever he commands.[1]
