I do think we can rule out the blond hair and blue eyes though. :)...

...I guess...though the Danes and Swedes are muttering amongst themselves...interesting tag line, by the way...”God is not bound to the sacraments but we are”

It’s interesting, to me at least, to ask people to describe how they see Jesus when they pray or talk to him. For most folks it’s difficult to carry on an inner dialogue without some visualization of the person, so most or many people do know what Jesus looks like - to them.

Maybe he is blond and blue-eyed to Swedes and Danes. ;)

I’ve never found the source of my tagline, though it’s been around for some time. I like it because it defines the sacramental life while including the sovereignty and mystery of God. It’s a short definition of the Church, IMO.

thanks for your reply...

”God is not bound to the sacraments but we are”

I think it derives from St. Thomas Aquinas.
