The Good Portion, a mixed media painting on wood panel

From the Lost and Found Collection

Jesus teaches throughout the gospels that He came for the lost; He comes and seeks. This collection captures moments of Jesus seeking the lost and what happens when they are found.

Jesus refuses to let us get it wrong. He teaches it over and over again. We cannot make ourselves well, nor can we successfully hide. In the presence of His holiness, we are often tempted to try. Jesus says, no, we aren’t doing that. Come on. 

“And when the woman saw that she was not hidden, she came trembling, and falling down before him and declared in the presence of all the people why she had touched him, and how she had been immediately healed.…” Luke 8:47

Let’s not hide. All that is His is ours. We can rejoice in being found.
