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

Feast of St. Anthony of Padua..........June 13
"Happy the man whose words come from the Holy Spirit and not from himself."
Each day visiting this site,viewing the holy cards and reading all the information is a wonderful devotional. I have learned so much and appreciate everyones input.
Dearest Micki, Beautiful picture of St. Anthony he is one of my favorite saints.
I have missed you...I was not doing well but I think I am on my way back up. A medication that I was taking for a month in a half effected my lungs and esophagus.
Love you Sweet Micki... Send my guardian angel to give you a big hugs. Love, Prayerflowers
John - As always, thanks. Interesting about the mistake in scripture.
Ed - Happy Feast Day to you Ed. I have a son named Anthony...such a great name!
Freda - And you make it interesting for others also. Thanks.
Prayerflowers - Have you named your guardian angel? I'd like to greet him/her by name. I feel the hugs :-) I'm praying that you are making a turn-around. You give so much...your deserve more back. Hugs.
Friends,
ReplyDeleteThe German words mean this:
"Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God."
There is an error in the scriptural citation. The words are actually from Matthew 5:8, not 5:3 as stated on the card.
John
Thank You Micki for posting this.
ReplyDeleteMy middle name is Anthony and Saint Anthony is my Patron saint.
His intercession for us before God is very powerful.
