“In profound adoration he [St. Joseph] united himself to the special grace of each one of the events in the life of Jesus. He adored Our Lord in His hidden life and in His Passion and Death; he adored in advance the Eucharistic Christ in His tabernacles: there was nothing that Our Lord could hide from Saint Joseph. Aside from the Blessed Virgin, Saint Joseph was the first and most perfect adorer of Our Lord.”

~St. Peter Julian Eymard
