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
Here is the meaning of the French words on the right side of this card:
"Yes, my God, I am Thine forever! "I shall love the Cross out of love for Thee! "I shall seek it by thinking about Thee! "I shall carry it in union with Thee!"

PS: Micki, I think that the first word in the title should be spelled, "Pious."
