A Second Look at a Christmas Card No 4: The Invisible God

Unsurprisingly I have a leaning toward cards with a text of Scripture.  As this one proudly announces - this is the message that really matters.
And the card has a splendid text too: Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father! [John 14:9 TLB]   There is a disappointment to come however.  For when you turn over and look at the picture . . .


there is merely a manger with a some hay, some sheep and a something resembling some wheat in a white vase.  So the Father remains - at least in terms of this card - as mysterious and unseen as ever!

Perhaps the card company might extend its strap line to when the message really matters the picture does too.
