Description

A meditation preached by Fr. Eric Nicolai at Lyncroft Centre, Toronto, on March 19, 2025. Joseph was in a state of emotional upheaval, until God told him in a dream what was happening with Mary. He knew what he had to do. He did not turn around in circles.

Joseph’s response was immediate: “When Joseph awoke from sleep, he did as the angel of the Lord commanded him” (Mt 1:24 ). Obedience made it possible for him to surmount his difficulties and spare Mary.

The imagination has been called "The Crazy Woman of the House." How can Joseph intercede to help us put our imagination under better control?
