The Work of Joseph
Maria says: (Maria Mother and Teacher, Vol. 1) ” My children, thank you, thank you again for the love that you show me, for the fear that you have of losing me and for the desire of perfection that animates you.
I am your Mother and Teacher. But today I present myself to you as Mary of Nazareth, the humble virgin that was given as a bride to a young man of regal family, but so simple, humble and chaste as to attract the gaze of God and be chosen as the shadow of the Eternal Father, beside me, whim the Lord wanted as Mother of the Son of God made Man.
And do you know why I present myself like this? I want to invite you to spend this month, in preparation for the feast of my spouse, with special thoughts turned to him, who has a very great importance in the Fife of the Church and of single Christians, as he had for me and my Son.
I do not ask you for much, I beg you only to invoke him, so that he can every day support, illuminate and help all those who must leave this world to begin the true life. The special task that the Lord has entrusted him, of saving the ding, shall be realized with more efficacy if there is the concurrence of your prayer.
His power in Heaven has been well foreshadowed by the ancient Joseph, whom the Pharaoh had placed as viceroy and head of his nation. Along the centuries he goes on exercising his sovereign powers and as he guarded my divine Son and me, his Mother, so he guards the Church of all times, combating the errors and defending it from the assaults of the enemy.
Now more than ever the work of Joseph is timely and necessary, and it is to him whom you must entrust the priests, so that they may be convinced that perfect chastity is indispensable for my ministers.
It is necessary to entrust families to him, so that they may keep faith to that bond which the spouses contract with an oath before God. It is necessary to entrust the youth to him, so that they may learn to love purity, to despise riches and to live in union with God, who forms the happiness of hearts.
It is all for these reasons that I invite you to have a special devotion to him and to make him enter amongst your friendships, sere that what you do to honor him, shall be very pleasing to the Blessed Trinity, who has entrusted itself to him and so giving him precious tasks.
The devotees of Joseph, my spouse, enjoy special privileges and are particularly helped by him in all material difficulties, which he knew and overcame with great faith and love He puts into practice all his skills to help whoever commends himself to him.
Then, when the last hour arrives, he solicits the help of all Paradise to aid his beloved ones and leads them securely to salvation.
His humility and love for secrecy has made it so that the Lord hears him and leaves him in the background, but his sanctity emerges and exceeds that of all the saints.
Love therefore, my spouse Joseph and go to him with confident prayer and you shall be heard.
I bless you. children.”

The thoughts, the reflections and the meditations in this booklet, were inspired by Our Mother Maria, Mother of Jesus, to Carmela Negri Carabelli.

May Jesus bless these pages and those who read them with the desire to improve themselves, granting the help of his grace.
Pray for the Church, its Hierarchies, the validly ordained and consecrated during this time of confusion and apostasy. Do not fall into the trap of division, even with apparent good reasons. Turn your eyes to the lives of saints, such as St. Martin de Porres, St. Padre Pio of Pietrelcina, the former discriminated against and the latter fought by the same institution. Let their behavior in adversity be an example for you to follow…
“The Church is God’s house. It is forbidden for men to enter here with bare arms and wearing shorts. It is forbidden for women to enter wearing trousers, bare headed, with short, low-necked or sleeveless dresses.”
“Parents, correct the ways if your family, have much dialogue with your children, make time to listen to them as many homes are being lost due to lack of love, dialogue, understanding and most specially for not inviting God. Take God back into your homes, pray my Holy Rosary, as the family that prays together stays together.” 
January 31, 2022 "Heavenly Father, today, I surrender to You my heart. Help me to be Your instrument in the world. Cover me with the Precious Blood of Your Divine Son. Guard me against all evil. Protect me from any evil plan Satan may have for me today. Clothe me in Your Divine Will. Amen"
"O Hearts of Jesus and Mary; I consecrate myself, I consecrate my family and the whole world, to your Most Beloved Hearts. Listen to the supplication which I making to you and accept our hearts in Yours, to be delivered and protected we, the whole world, from all evil and all sin. May the protection of your Two Hearts be refuge, strength, and protection, in the daily spiritual struggles. That the power of your Two Hearts irradiates the world so that it is protected from evil and sin. We willingly consecrate ourselves and consecrate all mankind to your Hearts; sure and confident, for your Great Mercy, to obtain the victory over the forces of evil in this world, and the eternal Glory in the Kingdom of God. Amen"
"O Virgin of Carmel, may the power of your Holy Scapular take away from me the enemy of my soul; bless me, Mother of Carmel, and deliver me from all evil and danger in this world. I ask you O Mother, that in the hour of my death, your Holy Scapular frees me from the fury of the devil and in the eternity, of the eternal fire. Amen" 
"Oh Jesus of Divine Mercy, hear my pleadings to you, for I am here to do your Will"
"O glorious St. Joseph! by your profound humility, by your unalterable meekness, by your invincible patience, by your angelic purity and perfect fidelity that made you a timely imitator of the virtues of Jesus and Mary, I ask you to console me in all my sorrows, to guide me in all my doubts, to defend me in all temptations, to deliver me from all spiritual and material dangers; to extend your arm against all my visible and invisible enemies, breaking and destroying all the snares and barriers that they tend and arm against me. Amen" 
"Oh, blessed Saint Michael, protect us from the attacks and snares of the evil spirits because you know full well that we are poor mortals, fragile and weak, in need of the Mercy of God and of your protection to fulfill the mission that Heaven has commissioned to us. Oh, Saint Michael, may your victorious cry: “who is like God? no one is like God”, suppress and cast into Hell satan and all the evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the destruction of souls. Amen"
Most sweet Jesus, redeemer of the human race, look down upon us, humbly prostrate before your altar. We are yours and yours we wish to be; but to be more surely united with you, behold each one of us freely consecrates himself today to your most sacred heart. Many, indeed, have never known you, many too, despising your precepts, have rejected you. Have mercy on them all, most merciful Jesus, and draw them to your sacred heart. Be you king, O Lord, not only of the faithful who have never forsaken you, but also of the prodigal children who have abandoned you; grant that they may quickly return to their father’s house, lest they die of wretchedness and hunger. Be you king of those who are deceived by erroneous opinions, or whom discord keeps aloof, and call them back to the harbor of truth and unity of faith, so that soon there may be but one flock and one shepherd. Be you king also of all those who sit in the ancient superstition of the Gentiles, and refuse not you to deliver them out of darkness into the light and kingdom of God. Grant, O Lord, to your Church, assurance of freedom and immunity from harm; give peace and order to all nations, and make the earth resound from pole to pole with one cry: Praise to the divine heart that wrought our salvation; to it be glory and honor forever. Amen.
