The Venerable Sister Mary of Jesus of Ágreda describes the happy death of St. Joseph and what followed. She also explains how Jesus, Our Redeemer, and the Blessed Virgin Mary, Our Lady, assisted in his passing. The Blessed Virgin Mary reminds us that readiness is key in our last hours, saying, "...you will understand the great danger in the hour of death when both the good works and the bad will begin to show their effects. I will not tell you how many are thus lost, in order that your sincere love of God may not cause you to die of sorrow at this loss. But the general rule is: a good life gives hope of a good end; all other reliance is doubtful, and salvation resting upon it is very rare and merely accidental. The best precaution is to take a good start from afar; and therefore I admonish you, that, at the dawning of each day, when you look upon the light, you seriously consider whether it may not be the last of your life, and, if it should be the last (for you do not know), that you place your soul in such a state as to be able to meet death with a smiling face. Do not delay even for one instant sorrow for your sins and a firm purpose of confessing them as soon as you find yourself guilty of any and of amending the least of your imperfections."
