• Name : Jesus, Help Me!

• Painter : L.S. ‘15 (L. Sugiri, SJ – 2015)

• Acrylic on Canvas : 90 cm x 70 cm

• Explanation : There is a story in the Gospel, that Jesus after his prayer at the mountain, saw his disciples in the boat on the sea of Galilee. Jesus walked over the water to join them.

But they did not recognize Him, but thought to see a ghost. When he addressed them, they would believe him, and at that moment the spontaneous Peter stepped out the boat on the water in faith to walk over the water to Jesus as Jesus did. But his faith was not strong enough, than he sank and in fear for his life, he shouted: “Jesus, help me!” (Mat 14:25-35).

Lukisan ke-41

• Judul : Yesus, Tolonglah Aku

• Pelukis : L.S. ‘15 (L. Sugiri, SJ – 2015)

• Dimensi : 90 cm x 70 cm (cat akrilik)

• Keterangan : Ada sebuah cerita dalam Injil, bahwa Yesus setelah berdoa di gunung, melihat murid-murid-Nya berlayar di danau Galilea. Yesus berjalan di atas air menuju perahu, untuk bergabung dengan mereka.

Akan tetapi mereka tidak mengenal Dia, mereka malahan berpikir telah melihat hantu. Ketika ia memanggil mereka, barulah mereka percaya. Pada saat itu, Petrus dengan spontan melangkah keluar perahu, mencoba untuk berjalan di atas air dengan iman kepada Yesus, seperti yang Yesus lakukan. Namun iman Petrus tidak cukup kuat, dalam ketakutan akan tenggelam, ia berteriak: “! Yesus, tolonglah saya” (Mat 14:25-35).
