Statement:
I’m a Christian. .And, I always draw pictures while reading the Bible. But once in a while
I ask myself. Do I really listen to Jesus Christ and live according to God’s will?
Do I always open the door of my heart to see the image of Jesus Christ?
An important part of this work is not the ornate oratory beyond the main gallery of
the Church on the left. It is the light from the door that opens slightly on the dark right side.
I don’t have the courage to walk confidently through the main gallery and get close to the
alter.
But I believe that where I am, I should always keep the door of my heart open and not
allow
Jesus Christ to pass by.
The sheep tucked a way next to the door is the lost lamb, which is me.
