Minute Meditations From The Popes

How did this Man come by this wisdom and these miracles? Is He not the carpenter's Son?
-Mt 13:55

Reflection:
Work is not something that people do for the sole purpose of earning a living; it is a human dimension that can and must be sanctified.
In this way, work will enable people to fulfill their vocation as creatures made in the image and likeness of God.
-Pope John Paul II

Prayer:
O Lord, grant that St. Joseph, patron of human work, will assist me in my work, in that vocation I have on earth. May he teach me to resolve the difficult problems connected with work.
