Summary
Series on "Prepare Your Heart" by Fr. Agustino Torres, CFR. (Part 3)
What's the best thing you learned from St. Joseph?
Advent teaches us that God has a different way of doing things and St. Joseph is an amazing example and witness of that.
Throughout his life, St. Joseph should've had the opportunity to grasp human comfort or control, but instead, he chose to enter into humility, into silence, he didn't overthink, he didn't overtalk, but rather he trusted and was obedient to God while being completely attentive to Mary and Jesus.
This Advent, just like St. Joseph, we are invited to be radically open to what God wants us to do. Advent is not about evaluating everything but being with those who are most important and anchoring ourselves to God like St. Joseph did.
This is the third part of this year's Advent series where we continue to look into the lives of different saints of Advent and for this episode, we're talking about the heart and experience of St. Joseph.
