Hello?

One of my sisters was facing a potential crisis this past week, so I pulled out the big guns and started my two favorite novenas, one to St. Joseph (my favorite saint!) and one to St. Therese of Lisieux.  Faithfully I petitioned day after day with no response.  No news from my sister, and no rose from St. Therese.  I felt as though the saints had turned a deaf ear.  Hello?  Anybody listening???
I finally heard from my sister, and wouldn't you know it, the silence from the saints wasn't so much of "La, la, la, we're not listening," as it was, "No problem! It's already been taken care of!"  So this is my public apology to St. Therese and St. Joseph for doubting that they weren't listening.  Even if the answer had been a flat out, "No!" from God- I should know by now (How old am I?? Still learning this stuff!!) that everything will be fine.
