Share
At LDSart.com, we are thrilled to feature one of our most best-selling pieces, Trust in Him, a stunning piece by Justin and Anna Culebro that beautifully portrays the essence of trusting in Jesus Christ. This painting invites us to reflect on the peace and assurance that come from walking alongside our Savior through life’s challenges and triumphs. The imagery is peaceful, yet powerful, and it speaks to the core of what it means to place our full trust in the Savior.
The Story Behind Trust in Him by Justin and Anna Culebro
In Trust in Him, the artist portrays a young woman walking arm in arm with Jesus Christ, symbolizing a deep and unwavering trust. The figure moves through water with the Savior beside them, a metaphor for life's journey - sometimes calm, sometimes turbulent - but always with the surety that Jesus is there to guide us. The figure’s serene expression reflects the peace that comes from trusting in Christ, embracing the security of His companionship.
The painting draws inspiration from Proverbs 3:5: "Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding." These words invite us to place our complete trust in the Lord, knowing that He will guide us, protect us, and help us grow. As we journey through life with Jesus by our side, we can experience a peace that surpasses all understanding - a peace that comes from trusting in Him.
Trusting in Jesus: A Journey of Peace and Faith
In moments of uncertainty, it can be difficult to know where to turn. We may be tempted to rely on our own understanding or the fleeting security the world offers. But the message of Trust in Him reminds us that Jesus Christ is always with us, offering His love, wisdom, and peace. Just as the figure in the painting confidently walks through the water with Jesus, we are invited to walk through our own life’s journey, trusting that He will guide and protect us every step of the way.
Elder Dieter F. Uchtdorf once said in a General Conference talk, "The first step in trusting the Lord is to remember that He is always with us - He knows us, He loves us, and He will never leave us." These words echo the powerful message of the Trust in Him painting: Jesus is with us. He walks beside us, offering peace and strength as we trust in Him.
How Trust in Him Can Inspire Your Faith
This painting serves as a visual representation of the profound truth that trusting in Jesus can bring peace and clarity. Whether we are navigating life’s trials, seeking spiritual growth, or simply longing for peace, Trust in Him invites us to look to the Savior for comfort and guidance. The act of trusting in Jesus is not passive - it requires action, faith, and a willingness to follow Him in all things.
Trusting in Jesus doesn’t mean life will be free from difficulties. Rather, it means that, with Him by our side, we can face any challenge with confidence, knowing that He will be there to guide us through it. Trust in Him is a reminder that, as we place our faith in Jesus Christ, we are never alone.
Trust in Jesus: A Call to Trust with All Our Heart
The scripture from Proverbs 3:5 calls us to trust in the Lord with all our heart. This isn’t just a suggestion - it’s a commandment. It’s an invitation to put our faith in Jesus Christ fully, not just in moments of ease but especially in moments of trial. In Trust in Him, we are reminded that trusting with all our heart means embracing Jesus’ guidance in every circumstance, knowing that He sees the bigger picture even when we can’t.
President Henry B. Eyring once said, "The Lord knows you perfectly, and He will lead you to places of peace, hope, and strength, if you will trust Him." This profound truth is reflected in Trust in Him, as it illustrates the power of walking alongside Jesus Christ, trusting in His perfect guidance and love.
