Images of Christ

I see so many pictures of Christ and He is serious and stern. I want to think he is a happy man who I can relate to. A friend of mine sent me a photo of the baptism of Christ and I want to think that really this is how He looked after he was baptized.

I love these photos of Christ with children. I think they truly represent how He and they feel when they are together.


I really love this photo of Christ and His mother. I would hope that one day my children would hold me in as much esteem as this picture depicts Christ holds His mother in.

I feel these photos depict a Christ I can turn to and who knows me personally. That is what I really believe. I don't think He is just waiting for me to fail so He can punish me. I believe He loves and cherishes each of us. How lucky we are for Susan Lemon Swindle who shares her magnificent talent of capturing the essence of a loving Father in Heaven.
