expresses Jesus' longing to have intimate fellowship with His bride. The
red lettering has been appliquéd by hand with roses. The color
red, for the blood that Jesus shed and the roses for "I am the rose
of Sharon" Song of Solomon 2:1 (from the coastal plains of
Sharon) also the "rose" of Isaiah 35:1

kingliness, "full of grace." John 1:14

a combination of 39 strands of black and gold beads. Jesus received 39
lashes at the pillar. II Corinthians 11:24 & Isaiah 53:5
