     Morning Light presents Day 22 of our on-air Consecration to St. Joseph, following the book by Fr. Donald Calloway.  Today, “Mirror of Patience, Pray for Us.”  Patience is a virtue that many people find hard to practice.  Remaining peaceful and calm can be very challenging when you find yourself in a situation that’s completely out of your control.  In modern times, technology has put just about everything at our fingertips - making it even more difficult to practice patience.  If you want to be like St. Joseph, however, you must learn patience.
