Messages of Saint Joseph

A few days away from finishing your Lenten path, child, strengthen your heart even further, redo your offerings, renew your commitment; in light of God, review that which you still have not surrendered, let go of the reins still in your hands, leave the treasures you still embrace as precious to you and plunge even deeper into the void.

With bare feet and empty hands, walk divesting yourself of the past and the future, forgiving what has passed and offering what will come. At each step, embrace the present moment and allow Divine Graces to descend over your consciousness to fill the empty spaces.

Yield space to the Spirit of God, so that it may be Him Who leads you during your last days in the desert, and that it is Him Who guides you after crossing the arid lands of inner solitude.

Each day, let the Creator find in you a heart ready to be in Him and to live for Him each moment of life in this world.

Do not tire of walking and do not fear what will come on leaving the desert, because for this you are preparing your heart. And if you transform into an ever more empty and transparent instrument, you will always yield space so that the Father may be in you; and it is He, child, Who will live each stage of human transformation within your heart.

Thus, concentrate your energy, your consciousness and your will on being an empty instrument in the Hands of God. He will do everything else in you and through you.

You have My blessing for this.

Your father and friend,

The Most Chaste Saint Joseph
