Carl Block

I had the wonderful priviledge last week to enter the Museum Of Art and see the work of Carl Block.I really liked his paintings and i thought they were really awesome.I was especially drawn to the painting of The daughter of Jairus.It stood out to me not onmy because it is a big and bold painitng but also beacause of the story behind it.It shows a mother who is sitting near her now dead daughter and it seems as if she has died over night and her mother has stayed with her all nigth till the light of the first dawn.Jesus Christ appears at the door and and he has brought with him life.

I especially like this painting because it tells me that although i might face dark and trying times.I must hold on and keep the faith.Just like morning follows night, joy will come after the pain.Our Heavenly Father will always be there to turn our night into day.We should not give up.Just as the mother who stayed with her daughter.
