"Since Christ Himself has said
'This is My Body'
who shall dare to doubt
that it is
His Body?"
St. Cyril of Jerusalem
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

A spectacular and beautiful card, Micki. The detail is astonishing - and to think that not a stroke will have been included by the artist without having some symbolism, some message to impart. Fabulous.
Best Regards, Lynneda
Food indeed!
This is beautiful Micki.
So many Catholics today that no longer believe in this truth.
Christ said it
I believe it
That settles it
God Bless,
I believe, help my unbelief!
Such a wonderful card Micki .. I love this one.
Lynneda - I'm glad you enlarged the card to see the beautiful symbols the artist put in the background.
Jackie - Yes, "food" that is a must on my diet.
Ed - You said that so truthfully. I agree, how sad that so many miss the gift.
StBlog - You have been missed.
Who made your quote? I can't remember but I know some saint said that....Augustine???
The Eucharistic Jesus is my favorite picture of Christ. What a handsome God we have! :-)
Thanks Micki!
Love,
Easter:-)
Easter - Inside and Out!
