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
This is a wonderful card. It helps to see all the help one can have at the moment of death: Relatives praying for you; the priest giving last rites; Holy Mary being the advocate to Almighty God; and even the guardian angel making your case. If I have only one of these to assist me at that moment, I will be so grateful.

ReplyDeleteI forgot to say thank you for sharing this comforting scene on your holy card.
ReplyDeleteWhat a powerful quote Micki!
ReplyDeleteLee - So good of you to point out all those helping us at our death. I should say "new beginning" rather than "death". Thanks for your comment.
ReplyDeleteEsther - Scarry isn't it to think He leaves when we are in sin...I never thought of it that way. Thank goodness for Confession :-)
