Saint On The March

GOD seems to have reserved the devotion to St. Joseph for the terrible days of struggle and trial through which we are now passing. To us who have the happiness to believe, it is evident that the misfortunes which we deplore to-day are the punishment of our sins; and if we wish to seek the reasons for our moral degradation, we shall find that they may be summed up under the following heads: 1st, Our forgetfulness of God; and 2dly, our neglect of domestic virtues. The true spirit of Christianity only exists now in exceptional souls; and the peace and happiness of families are destroyed by selfishness and egotism. Aeterna Press
