Peace Be with You.Week 4 of Advent is about "Peace".I wonder how Joseph maintained his own "peace" during all the stress and unknowns of his life and I believe it was through the virtue of "temperance".Synonyms of temperance: self-mastery, asceticism, discretion, moderation, sacrifice, self-discipline, sobriety, and stoicism. All virtues of St. Joseph.All of the above are attainable characteristics and traits we can learn to grow in and incorporate into our life.Josemaria Escriva - www.stjosemaria.org"[Temperance] fosters a natural sense of reserve which everyone finds attractive because it denotes intelligent self-control. Temperance does not imply narrowness, but rather greatness of soul." Subscribe at sonsofjoseph.substack.com
