Let us praise God with our life,
with our voice,
with our heart,
and with our deeds."

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.

What an unusual card, Micki.
Blue is usually reserved for Our Lady. I may have never seen a depiction of Jesus wearing blue before ... and what an intense shade of blue it is!
John
All praise and glory and honor to you Lord, Jesus Christ.
John - I guess the painter must have thought the same thing and decided to do a "blue" Jesus. Interesting huh?
Ed - Amen
