"The Blessed Virgin
never shall fail to protect me
when I call upon her.
When I am troubled,
I quickly turn to her.
And like the most tender of mothers
she looks after me."
St. Theresa of Lisieux
IMAGO SACRA MILLE GRATIARUM VALET. ("A holy picture is worth a thousand graces")................... This blog is a means to show some of my holy card collection along with some interesting thoughts and inspirations. "....artists have the privilege in the Church and throughout history, to open up so that people can see the mystery of God. The artist speaks, not just literally, but symbolically. Visual images, if well done, can move us. That's a ministry." Quote from Brother Michael Moran, C.P

paramedicgirl - I think that might me Mary as a child because of the halo around her head.
This image of Mary with St. Therese's expression is such a good match.

Either way, you are filled with inspirations.
