"Show me your hands.
Do they have scars from giving?
Show me your feet.
Are they wounded in service?
Show me your heart.
Have you left a place for divine love?"
Fulton J. Sheen

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.

Beautiful reflection and prayer comparing Jesus' wounds with our service to others.
Amen, Joey. I both read and 'felt' your words. Imagine! All the implications! HIM serving on our behalf, and WE serving on His behalf - which becomes our behalf.
