It is a "voluminous book" reminding us of truths we oftentimes neglect or find "corny."( God is so good, for He used this painting to be a living testament of His great love for me!) Allow me to share with you some of them: a. In Christ, there is an abundance of hope .As we fix our gaze on the image, we may ask: "Where's hope when the image is surrounded by poverty and darkness?" WE FAIL TO LOOK AT THE CENTER--CHRIST. Yes, there is hope in the midst of terror and despair, and we solely find it in Christ b. God shares in our pains and sufferings. We oftentimes think that God doesn't care for us, or never listens to us, but as the picture shows us, the Lord eats with children who seemed to be neglected. The same is true with us. We never walk in a dark tunnel alone, for He firmly holds our hands, and guides us out of that dark passage. He knows the pains that we endure, he hears our cries for help. He is always with us, most especially in the Eucharist, where He assures us that till the end of our days, He will always be with us! c. God loves us dearly, and so we must love one another. "Hapag ng Pag-Asa" clearly instructs us that as God loves each one of us that much, so we must love one another that much. We must become like Christ to our neighbors, striving to seek His adorable Face in the distressing disguise of our brothers and sisters, no matter how unlovable, no matter how undesirable. "Hapag ng Pag-Asa" is not just a painting. It is also a silent teacher, opening to us truths we oftentimes shun or disregard. Why not look at it again. this time, closer. Believe me, it's like Christ personally talking to you. “Hapag ng Pag-Asa” is more than just a piece of art.

Allow me to share with you some of them:
a. In Christ, there is an abundance of hope .As we fix our gaze on the image, we may ask: “Where’s hope when the image is surrounded by poverty and darkness?” WE FAIL TO LOOK AT THE CENTER–CHRIST. Yes, there is hope in the midst of terror and despair, and we solely find it in Christ
b. God shares in our pains and sufferings. We oftentimes think that God doesn’t care for us, or never listens to us, but as the picture shows us, the Lord eats with children who seemed to be neglected. The same is true with us. We never walk in a dark tunnel alone, for He firmly holds our hands, and guides us out of that dark passage. He knows the pains that we endure, he hears our cries for help. He is always with us, most especially in the Eucharist, where He assures us that till the end of our days, He will always be with us!
c. God loves us dearly, and so we must love one another. “Hapag ng Pag-Asa” clearly instructs us that as God loves each one of us that much, so we must love one another that much. We must become like Christ to our neighbors, striving to seek His adorable Face in the distressing disguise of our brothers and sisters, no matter how unlovable, no matter how undesirable.

“Hapag ng Pag-Asa” is not just a painting. It is also a silent teacher, opening to us truths we oftentimes shun or disregard. Why not look at it again. this time, closer. Believe me, it’s like Christ personally talking to you.
