Abide With Me (Canvas)
In this image, I wanted to depict Christ in the Garden with a woman, any woman, who would accept his sacrifice. It could be Mary Magdalene or it could be you. I believe that the image of those who would accept his message strengthened him as he bore our afflictions and carried our burdens.
In this image, I wanted to depict the essence of Christ's sacrifice on a deeply personal level. To me, this image illuminates the profound truth that his love transcends the boundaries of time and space, reaching out to each individual soul with unwavering devotion. Through his suffering, he not only bore the weight of humanity's sins but also embraced the unique struggles and pains of each of his beloved children, offering them a guiding light amidst the darkness

About this Piece
I had difficulty coming up with the title of this piece. I showed this to my wife and asked what thoughts came to her mind, she profoundly and emotionally responded: “The Journey Home.” He will always leave the ninety-nine to look for you, no matter how far you have strayed, you cannot stray far enough from his divine love. He will find you and bring you back home.
