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.

Micki---what a beautiful card! This will be among one of my favorites! Thankyou for sharing!

This card is SO sweet. I need to add to my collection for sure. I love your quote from St. Theresa. She is my confirmation Saint. I have a special place in my heart for her. My mother-in-law (who shared this site with me) helped me pick her when I came into the church 17 years ago. She was my Sponsor, too!! Thank you Diane! She has a special place in my heart as well. Thanks for sharing with us daily. God will TRULY bless you~JMJ~Lisa S.
Micki, I agree with the two previous comments left by Diane and Lisa. Ste. Therese is my favorite Saint, she was so like us in many ways, so very real. She showed us that reaching sanctity is really possible, through the small acts we offer up to Our Dear Lord. When we do this He will surely honor our intentions. I have an entire photo album with different holy cards and booklets dedicated to her. Some of the cards are quite old, a friend of mine who is French recently sent me a very old booklet with prayers and the Mass in honor of Ste.Therese. May Ste. Therese shower upon our world her roses of graces from the hand of Jesus who was her EVVERYTHING!!! A blessed day to all who visit today!! John K.
Diane - We have been in New York for a family wedding. I'm so glad you like this card also....it alays moves me to such joy.
Lisa S. - Welcome. I loved your sharing about your history with St. Therese...she is my Confirmation saint also....just the two of us and a million others I'm sure. She is such a joy. I thank your mother-in-law for leading you here... Blessings to all of you also. Thanks.
John K. - Thank you for the blessing to all who visit today....I have been away myself but I hope I got a little blessing also.
It would be so great if you could start a blog and share all your St. Therese cards etc. I bet you have received many roses from her. Thanks for sharing also.
