This year, I have made a vow to read the entire CITY OF GOD, by Sister Mary of Agreda, Spain in the course of this year. Reading in the 3rd volume, 16th chapter, St. Joseph has died, and our Blessed Mother made these statements regarding St. Joseph.
Because of the privileges bestowed upon St. Joseph, his intercession is most powerful, especially for these causes:
1. For attaining the virtue of purity and overcoming the sensual inclinations of the flesh;
2. For procuring powerful help to escape sin and return to the friendship of God;
3. For increasing the love and devotion to the Most Holy Mary;
4. For securing the grace of a happy death and protection against the demons in that hour;
5. For inspiring the demons with terror at the mere mention of his name by his clients;
6. For gaining health of body and assistance in all kinds of difficulties;
7. For securing issue of children in families.
May St. Joseph help us during this season of Lent and for the rest of our lives, so that hopefully we can be blessed at the hour of death with the heavenly vision for all eternity. St. Joseph, pray for us.
