Advent Joseph A Reflection by Robert P. Maloney, C.M.

Joseph teaches us how to walk with God.

Joseph knew how to listen to God’s word and act upon it.

God spoke to Joseph in dreams: Do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife-- Joseph received her into his home. Take the child and his mother to Egypt-- they left that very night. Set out for Israel-- he departs immediately. Do not go to Judea-- he changes his route and settles in Galilee.

The Dream of St. Joseph, oil on canvas by Georges de la Tour, circa 1640

Joseph trusted in God’s daily providence. He believed in God’s revealing words and rushed to put them into practice.

Joseph has much to say to those who live in the Vincentian tradition.

St. Joseph and the Christ Child, El Greco, 1599 Detail (Original in Daughters of Charity Provincial House, Zaragoza) For Joseph, the word of God is paramount. For Vincent, this word “never fails”.

Is the word of God central for you? Is it water that gives you life when your hearts and minds are dry? Is it a hammer for you when you are too set to budge? Is it food that is sweeter than honey when you are hungering to know what God is asking for you?

Joseph knew the pain and embarrassment of poverty when there was no room in the inn and he had to place his infant child in a manger.

Nativity of Christ, by Lorenzo Lotto, 1523

Joseph believed that God walked with him, that God is faithful to promises, that God is alive, and that we can find God not only in the light but also in the darkness.

The word of God was his strength. Deep faith was his light in the darkness. Is the word of God your strength?

Do you see the presence of God even where suffering, privation, and violence appear to reign?
