어머니의 기쁨

Jesus stands before a kneeling mother whose clasped hands and lifted face express an urgent request for mercy. The spare interior setting focuses attention on the encounter: a woman comes in humility, asking Christ to heal her afflicted child. The subject reflects the Gospel account of the Canaanite or Syrophoenician woman, whose persistent faith sought deliverance for her daughter and received Jesus’ commendation. Her posture becomes a visual sermon on intercession, perseverance, and confidence in the compassion and authority of Christ. This artwork is well suited for teaching on prayer, healing, faith under trial, mothers in Scripture, and the mercy of Jesus toward those who come to Him in need.
