Living Bread

Scripture reference: Matthew 5:3-10

Inspired by Picasso’s blue period, where he uses hues of blues and green and paints mostly beggars and prostitutes. Decided to use this style to portray Jesus as the living bread that is being held and treasured by the weeping widow beside the wailing wall.

God has many names, and His names are used depending on our needs. He is Jehova Rapha when we need healing, Jehova Jireh when we need provision. Jehova Nissi when we need a banner. Jehova Shalom when we need peace. And most of all Jesus when we need a savior.

To those that are hurting, lost and weak the Gospel of Jesus is like food for the soul. Because he promises to take care of us and fulfill our every need. When our humble ourselves and come to the Lord with our needs, he is more than happy to supply.
