is the most infallible sign
of the presence of
God."

What a wonderful depiction of Christ! It is not too often that you see him pictured in such a full blown smile. It made me smile just looking at him. Great reminder about joy. No one will believe we love Christ if we walk around sour. Thanks Micki!

I LOVE the laughing Jesus pictures. Too bad they are so hard to find!

I should find one for my son's bedroom. What a great image of Christ to grow up with.

Stephanie - Thought you'd appreciate this quote...."From silly devotions and sour-faced saints, good Lord, deliver us!" -- St. Teresa of Avila

Ginny - Sounds like a good idea. He could learn about JOY with that face of Jesus....then the message of joy (Jesus, Others, Yourself)
