Wheatley’s artwork depicts a lone figure holding on to the iron rod—crowded by words of friends and of strangers.

“When the difficulties that surround us become seemingly overwhelming, it is prayer and meditation that bring into focus the love our Lord has for each one of us,” said Wheatley. “This divine communication is a blessing to forever depend on and be grateful for.”
