"The true Church will always attract
the very simple and the very smart;
the simple who sense the Truth,
and the wise people who reason to it."

The Window Shows It All
When I first started blogging I had no idea what my focus would be. Unlike Chelsey, our standard poodle, who had her focus on keeping us safe from the outside world. That’s why I named the blog The Window Shows it All. I later decided sharing my holy card collection would be my goal and that’s why my computer address is not Holy Cards for Inspiration.

Thanks for reminding me - I almost forgot! I wish we had Traditional Devotions in Buffalo! We must do this either at home or at The Dominican Monastery Perpetual Adoration Chapel. God Bless, Micki!
Such a treasured holy card of the Sacred Heart! The quote from Father Manton is wonderful!
Thankyou, Micki!

Adrienne - I think you might be talking about May crowning????
Not sure. Blessings for you too. Thanks.
Diane - Whenever I use one of his quotes I think of you because you are probably the only other one who knows of Fr. Manton. We are both blessed in that knowledge.
Jet - Glad you like it. I like your mini-prayer also. Thanks.
Prayerflowers - Dear friend, it isn't the feast of the Sacred Heart but it's always a wonderful day to honor him with that title.
I'm sorry your not having a good day....I will send some extra prayers your way via angels that are our messengers. I know you are saving souls with your proffered sufferings. May God bless you and give you His special graces. Love.
