I love this Marsha! It seems as though we all have little beliefs to comfort us. This reminds me of the bike bell that my husband and other bike riders like to put on their Harley's and other road bikes to protect them from evil road spirits. The cross is beautiful.
Wonderful picture and comments. Had no idea this was going on, but not a surprise in retrospect. It's always a good idea to have something physical to remind us of that tie of love between us and God...we keep on losing it, and have to always begin again. Faved. Tom
