Start off your day by giving it to God! We so often get caught up in our daily activities that we get distracted. A morning prayer or offering helps us begin the day with our hearts turned toward Him, and then for the rest of the day it is easier to seek first his kingdom through the ordinary, small things that we do. Especially as we build this habit.
In her visions of Jesus, Jesus told St. Mechtilde, “When you awake in the morning, let your first act be to salute My Heart, and to offer Me your own.” This beautiful set of 24 holy cards, featuring mostly vintage religious artwork and traditional Catholic prayers, provides a simple way to put that counsel into daily practice. Choose a card each morning, spend a few moments in prayer, and keep it nearby as a reminder of the offering you have made.
There is great comfort in placing the day in God's hands before we know what it will bring. When things go well, we can thank Him. When troubles come, we can offer those too. As Jesus told Fr. Dolindo Ruotolo in the Surrender Novena, “Leave the care of your affairs to me and everything will be peaceful.” If we offer the whole day to God, it all belongs to Him, and nothing ever goes to waste.
We love vintage holy cards. Some of our favorite Catholic art is on them. We've digitally remastered some of our favorites to their original beauty, as well as some vintage Catholic art and a few paintings from Sue. We've paired each one with a an inspirational prayer on back. Many were written by Saints, such as Don Bosco, St. Patrick, St. Teresa of Avilla and St. Therese of Lisieux to name a few. Some are traditional or anonymous. There is one from a devout Anglican, George Washington. He wrote a book of prayers when he was young, and we share his very worthy Morning Offering here. These are all excellent morning prayers, and with enough variety to keep you fresh.
We print them on a good card stock with a nice matte finish, so they are pretty sturdy and don't get messed up by handling. 2.75x4.25 inches.
Options:
-- Clear sleeves -- to keep them in mint condition.
-- Cool stands you can use to display them on a nightstand.
-- We've priced this set low because we think the world will be a much better place if more people would wake up, thank God, and give Him the day. This set makes a great gift for anyone who would want more joy and spiritual strength.
Elsewhere in our shop, we offer individual titles in packs of ten or a hundred or a thousand. If you want to share one, or read the happy reviews that people leav
One of these morning prayers is specifically for children. We've noticed children love holy cards. We often hand them out to kids in our parish, and a lot of them would perfectly understand the grown up prayers.
Stay tuned for more. We print at least 4 new ones every month, and usually 6, and they are available for only $3.65 with free postage. Etsy does not allow subscriptions, so go search the internet for "Holy Card of the Month," and you should find it.
We are devout Catholics, and making these beautiful holy cards is part of our mission with this shop, "to encourage the faithful and evangelize with beauty." Thanks for sharing our love of this beautiful Catholic tradition!
