Christian Contemporary Art Series on Isaiah 61:3

To console those who mourn in Zion,
To give them beauty for ashes,
The oil of joy for mourning,
The garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness;
That they may be called trees of righteousness,
The planting of the LORD, that He may be glorified. ~Isaiah 61:3

The following is a series of artworks done for this verse. I am so touched by the compassion and love in this passage of scripture. How amazing that our Lord Jesus Christ came to do these things! He still does them today. With this series I want to highlight the fact that Jesus brings light to those in darkness. He brings good news to those in great pain. He brings consolation, comfort, beauty, joy, and praise for all who are suffering. Jesus still sets the captives free today! May you be greatly encouraged by this new art series and may the Lord Jesus Christ be magnified!
To console those who mourn in Zion

To give them beauty for ashes
The oil of joy for mourning
The garment of praise for the spirit of heavinessAmen.

    Stacy,
    Doing a blog post on the passage, do you mind if I use your images if I include a link to your work? Not sure of protocol here.
