“If I am not (in God’s Grace) may God so put me there, and if I am, may God so keep me.”Blog dedicated to the Patron Saint of France and all things Catholic. I’m a practicing Catholic and small time artist and writer. I hope to make a comic one day!

January 28 . Feast day of St. Thomas Aquinas
Here we see the greatest mind of the church in his natural habit-at.
I decided to make a younger look for him since some of his notable events also happened when he was young.
Happy feast day to the greatest theologian!

"What must the cheerful way that Jesus looked upon people have been like? It must have been the same which shone from the eyes of his Mother who could not contain her joy — Magnificat anima mea Dominum! — and her soul glorified the Lord while she carried Him within her and by her side.
Oh, Mother!: May we, like you, rejoice to be with Him and to hold Him."
-Saint Josemaría Escrivá (Furrow, 95)
