When I Am Lifted Up...

By Hazel Holland


This is a watercolor I painted a number of years ago to illustrate a vision I had about the Spirit being poured out upon God's children. Tonight I finished fine-tuning the colors digitally. 

In this vision I saw children of every age flocking towards this pillar of light that represented Jesus Christ. Water was flowing very gently from the top of the pillar and this represented the Holy Spirit being poured out upon them. 

From every direction children flocked towards this pillar of light, and just as soon as they reached it the Spirit fell upon them, and they began dancing and worshiping God with childlike freedom and joy. 

The children represent you and I. We are God's beloved children whom He is drawing to Himself by His Spirit. For the Scriptures remind us that when Jesus Christ is lifted up He will draw all people to Himself. ♥
