Doubtless we had some excuse for our moments of sadness and moodiness while we were without this lovable Infant who was just born to us, or will be born tomorrow. But henceforth it will no longer be right for us to be sad, for in Him we have every reason for joy and happiness.
Saint Francis de Sales
Beautiful picture :-)
It’s part of a massive mural at a chapel in Pattaya, Thailand. I like that chapel very much.
Lovely. I used to send my pocket money to an orphanage in Pattaya when I was a teenager. :-)
Oh, we might have a coincidence here. This chapel is at the Redemptorist Center in Pattaya, where the first orphanage in the city started (that orphanage is now its separate thing, though).
But then again, they may not be the same.
