Icons continued

If you read the last blog entry, about how seriously the Bulgarians are about the the creation of icons, you would not be surprised to see this little shrine in the center of Sofia dedicated to a modern iconic image. Michael was a big hit here even during the Soviet times. I was glad to see they have not yet painted a golden halo around his head. I am sure it will come in time, but even I think we should wait until we get the three miracles performed in his name... and i am talking not just card tricks...or the miraculous sales of his records since his passing...or the songs mysteriously released after his death... i want miracles like the one attributed to JPII where a bishop had a scarf blessed by JPII and when back in the states gave it to a boy who was sick and he got better.... now that is what I am talking about....where is the power in the white glove?
