Happy Solemnity to St Joseph.. actually  it was yesterday March 19 Sunday.. but it was moved to today Monday…

I was reflecting on St Joseph.. and as I was finishing my prayers.. I looked at my book shelf and saw a book I was looking for last week.. The diary of St Fautina that I bought and read in 1994 in Omaha N at a Marian Conference.. Of all things I was think as I looked at my tattered copy of the diary.. Knowing that St Fautina would have had a devotion to St Joseph.. But just wondering if He ever appereard to Her.. so I pick up my tattered copy of the dairy.. and open it up to a page.. actually where a book mark was.. and it was on page 255 par 608 and I read ‘Just then, I saw Our Lady with the infant Jesus, and the Holy Old Man ‘St Joseph’ standing behind them. The most Holy Mother said to me, ‘Take My Dearest Treasure, and she handed me the infant Jesus. When I took the Infant Jesus in my arms, the Mother of God and St Joseph disappeared.’ 

thinking did I just find the only instant at random where St Jospeh is in the diary. From a blog byFr Mario Attard OFM I read ‘ Among the numerous visions St Fautina had of Jesus, we encounter an interesting fact there where rare circumstances wherein the holy Polish nun could see St Jospeh… The first moment when St Fautina did behold St Joseph was on February 2nd 1936. On this day we celebrate the feast of Presentation of Our Lord in. the Temple.. In entry 608 of her diary.” 

This was the page I just happened to open up to this morning.. when I glanced at her dairy on my book case and wondered if St Jospeh appeared to St Fautina. 

In reading the blog that this priest wrote about St Joseph in the dairy of St Fautina.. St Jospeh appeared to her 4 times.. so in opening up the diary at random just wondering if St Jospeh was in the dairy. And coming upon the first time and only one of 4 times that he appeared in her dairy.. feels to me that Yes St Joseph is with us.. In his hidden silent way.
