Description
I painted this watercolor of Jesus carrying a sheep on His shoulders many years ago when I was confined to a TB hospital in Michigan for two months... not knowing at the time if I had TB or not... Thankfully I didn't, but a fungus in my lungs that was treatable with medicine...
So today I enhanced it and added this inspirational text after listening to the words of Amy Grant's song, "Carry You". Jesus Christ wants us to call on His name, lay down our burden, and let Him carry us through whatever trial we may be going through.♥
"Be their Shepherd and carry them forever" (Psalm 28:9).
