Hearts Turning
“What courage does it give you to know that angels really will help you?” President Russell M Nelson
My ancestor angels have “Lift(ed) up (my) Hands which Hung Down '' They have succored and given strength to me when I had none. They have walked the path with me and I have felt them round about me. Together we joy as we navigate life.
Elijah has “turn(ed) the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers.” I have felt it, I have experienced it.
“Angels really will help you” President Russel M Nelson
Our ancestors need us as we need them. There are many yet waiting to be found and taken to the temple for their sacred linking ordinances to be fulfilled.
In this painting, the field of dandelion wishes, representing those numerous ancestors still waiting to be found. There are obvious breaks in the circle, spaces for missing family members hoping to complete the circle.
This painting is my tribute to those who have joined me in the circle of life, assisted me, protected me, and led me with love. It is also my prayer to find the still waiting, and through sacred ordinances add to our circle exponentially.
