“Your Faith Has Healed You” (2024)

This piece is painted in the Impressionist style. With its looser brushstrokes around the outside and increasing definition inward, it guides the eye and draws in the viewer. The scene, based on the texts in Matthew 9, Mark 5, and Luke 8, captures a woman's extraordinary faith and confidence the moment before her prayer is answered. The woman, who had suffered for twelve long years, had found no one who could help her and had spent all she had in search of healing. Despite her efforts, her condition grew worse instead of better. Then she heard about Jesus. Even after all the waiting, disappointments, and dashed hopes, she believed that He could heal her. All she had to do was reach out and touch Him. This piece inspires the viewer by a woman's unshakeable faith and the reminder that Jesus can do the same for us. Will we have the faith to reach out for one touch?
