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

Madlener Nature..........October 30
I will not be able to respond to any comments for the next 3 days. Please continue to leave remarks for the inspiration/enjoyment of other viewers. Thank you all.
Hi Sanctus Belle. I believe it is Mary and Jesus because of the artist painting a halo around the heads of both. Yes, a little unusual but I love the woodsy-nature atmosphere of the card.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful card, beautiful sentiment.
ReplyDeleteIf we could do those things, we would be not far from heaven.
Aspiring - So glad you get your food for meditation on some of these quotes. He provides in so many ways.
ReplyDeleteIrene - Thank you. We might not "do those things" but as long as we keep on trying.
Hmmm, who is in this one? Is that Mary and Jesus? If that's Mary, she's very unique...looks more like another saint to me but no idea which one.
