Why the Pope thought he received a ‘kindness from Heaven’

I think that in some way St. Joseph wanted to tell me that he would continue to help me, to be beside me, and I would be able to continue to think of him as a friend I could turn to, whom I could trust, whom I could ask to intercede and pray for me. 

This is why the Year dedicated to St. Joseph, I hope, made the heart of many Christians rediscover the profound value of the communion of Saints, which is not an abstract communion, but a concrete communion that expresses itself in a concrete relationship and has concrete consequences.
