+++++ And this is what Thomas Kinkade said about this work +++++ "For me, the world is enriched by images of faith. In my Garden of Promise series, I look deep into myself for those moments of revelation, of joyous acceptance, that comprise our common spiritual experience. Then I look out into the world to find visual images that reflect the truths of my walk with God. The Bridge of Faith is old and worn, but it is built of stone and it rests on a massive, unshakable rock. It crosses a stream fragrant with flowers; on our side the world is shrouded in shadow, but in the distance there shines a heavenly light." ~~Thomas Kinkade
