"Virtue of Prudence"

FOR SALE $6,500.00

Description:

“Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming.” (Matthew 25:14)

I drew my inspiration from a parable of ‘Wise and Foolish Maidens’. The foolish ones waisted their lamp oil (our precious time to do good),
and missed the coming of the Groom (Christ). The prudent ones kept the vigil (the light in their lamps represents active faith and therefore
good deeds and actions) and therefor were taken to the wedding banquet, the symbol of everlasting life in Heaven.
