Provision is a visual expression of Christ’s longing heart—His desire to gather, protect, and shelter His people. Inspired by Jesus’ lament over Jerusalem, this piece reflects both tender compassion and the sorrow of love that is offered freely, yet often refused.
At the center, a small, vulnerable chick rests beneath the sweeping wings of a hen. The wings curve inward, forming a refuge—strong, warm, and intentional. Surrounding darkness gives way to rich, glowing color, emphasizing the contrast between danger outside and safety within. This is not a scene of fear, but of care: provision made available, covering extended, protection fully offered.
This piece speaks to God’s nature as a provider—not only of daily needs, but of refuge, mercy, and belonging. It reminds the viewer that God’s provision is personal and near, yet never forced. His arms remain open, His shelter prepared, His heart willing.
Provision invites reflection on the safety found under Christ’s care, and the choice each heart must make to remain there.
“O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the city that kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to it! How often would I have gathered your children together as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, and you were not willing!”
— Matthew 23:37 (ESV)
