If we look into the Gospels, St.Joseph speaks to us more by his work than by words. Let us see what Joseph does - Three times is he summoned from sleep to save Mary and Jesus from painful or dangerous situations. And when Jeus was lost in the temple, he had the hard task of searching for Jesus. Once in Nazareth, he disappeared into the anonymity of routine work. Therefore, it is the spirit operative in the work of Joseph, that is a challenge to us today - his fidelity to work, his honesty in work, his responsibility in working for others, his unobtrusiveness. All this is an inviation to us to realize our dignity as workers and to find the meaning of God's plan in our life.
