Restful Waters
In the original Hebrew, “still waters” (Hebrew mayim she’elim) refers to calm, life-giving streams, in contrast to turbulent rivers. In ancient Israel, still waters were rare and precious, and sheep could safely approach them www.pinnaclemessage.com.
Ps. 23:2-3
Mary, Mother of Sorrows
This was a special request from a customer to paint the Sorrowful Mother from a small public domain image. Traditionally, the Church contemplates Seven Sorrows that would, according to the prophet Simeon, pierce her heart. Luke 2:35
1 – The prophecy of Simeon
2 – The flight into Egypt
3 – The losing of the Holy Child at Jerusalem
4 – The meeting with Jesus on His way to Calvary
5 – Standing at the foot of the Cross
6 – Our Lord being taken from the Cross
7 – The burial of Christ
