Black Lamb

Isaiah 9:6

For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given.

When we hold a newborn child in our arms, we are given a small insight into the love our Father in Heaven has for us. One cannot look lovingly into the face of an infant without also seeing the great potential and complete innocence of the child. In this painting, Mary looks into the face of her child, her joy. His name will be Wonderful, Counselor, the Mighty God, the Prince of Peace, but she will call Him “son,” and He will call her “mother.”
