I
created this piece a few years ago. The inspiration behind it began with our
dog dying suddenly, and me contemplating the wretchedness of death in general.
I ended up focusing on the passage in John 11, where, as Jesus is about to
bring Lazarus back to life, it says ‘He groaned in the spirit and was
troubled’, and He wept. He saw the suffering death had caused to the people He
loved, and I believe it hurt Him to see them hurting.
Easter is my favorite holiday. It’s a celebration of the single greatest
hope of mankind: Jesus Christ defeated death.
