Let Him Ask of God 12x16 LE Signed & Numbered - Giclee Canvas

When Joseph Smith was a young boy about 14 years of age, he lived with his family on a small farm just outside Palmyra, New York. It was in the Spring of 1820, and Joseph was interested, as many at the time were, in the topic of religion. As he searched the scriptures for answers to his questions, he came across the following passage in James: If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given (James 1:5). I imagined Joseph sitting on an old stump outside his log home. Behind his house lies the grove of trees where he eventually would go as James counseled. I love the way this image captures the simple faith of a young farm boy. His faith and witness one day would change the world.
