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

*Global Mission..........February 4
"We must be global Christians with a global vision because our God is a global God."
Hi Micki...Every day is such a blessing to visit your site and we all are so truly blessed by your kindness and effort in helping us all to feel closer to Christ. "Peace & Joy" to you and all your viewers. ~Freda~
I have never seen this touching and colorful holy card! The message that is with it is also meaningful. We must try to always and everywhere let the love of Jesus come from our actions. It is many times that our actions bring souls to Our Lord rather than our words. I believe St. Francis of Assisi said something very simular. It is my prayer each day that no one that I have met or spoken to will not have left a better person and to see Jesus in me. Jesus teach me to love you more each day and to die to myself. Thank you for the many blessings and graces you so lovingly shower upon all of your children and may we use the gifts you have given us to uplift and bring your love to our brothers and sisters in Christ!! A blessed evening to all. John K.
Beautiful...as Our Lady of America said to Sister Mildred Neuzil, "Bring me my children, Bring me All my children".
ReplyDeleteHow true!!
