He Does Whatever St. Joseph Asks

"I never remember having entrusted anything to him [St. Joseph], which he has failed to do.  I'm amazed by the great favors God has given me through this blessed Saint, the dangers from which he has freed me, both of body and soul.  It seems that our Lord gives grace to the other Saints to give help in some particular need, but I know from experience that this glorious Saint helps in every necessity.  And our Lord wants to make us understand that just as he was subject to him on earth – being his guardian Joseph had the name of father and could command him – so in heaven he does whatever Joseph asks."

St. Teresa of Avila
