Arms of Mercy

My wife conveyed a story to me that brought this image to my mind. My wife was at a time in her life where everything seemed to be overwhelming. Weighed down by the burdens she carried, she started to try and visualize the Savior. In this visualization, she imagined him coming to her, putting a comforting arm around her, and letting her weep on his shoulder. While they did not speak, the message was clear: despite my wife’s imperfections and inadequacies the savior was extending his arms of mercy to her. She wept as she felt the strength and kindness of those arms. She felt not only could she forgive herself, but she could move forward knowing that his arms of mercy were always extended to her.

In this image, I wanted to depict the love and mercy she felt and help others recognize those arms are extended to all. However, we can only feel the comfort of them when we choose to enter them.

Gabriel Heaton, a mental health nurse, has striven to follow Jesus Christ throughout his life. His longing to grasp the healing and grace of the Savior has grown deeper through his personal experiences as one of Christ's lost sheep. After being lovingly brought back by Christ and finding healing through His Atonement, Gabriel feels called to extend that same healing to others. As part of this mission, he began exploring modern digital art tools like Midjourney, Photoshop, and Procreate, using them as creative outlets to share Christ’s love and message as the ultimate Healer and Savior.
