"Heavenly Father loves us so much. There is nothing I am more grateful for than the knowledge that He has a hand in my life and in the lives of my children, and that I can ask Him for comfort and guidance anytime. This artwork depicts a small girl holding hands with her mother and father. Christ is in the background with outstretched hands. He represents the plea of the child to the parents to be led in truth and righteousness, but also the plea of the parents to the Father for help in raising a child of God. For me, one of the greatest things of God is His love for us and His willingness to lead us, to guide us, and to walk beside us through the trials we face in life, especially as parents raising such special spirits."
