"A Trusting Step" – Inspired by Proverbs 16:9
 
Amidst the rugged stone of an ancient stairway, a lone maiden stands, caught between past and future. Her gown, cinched at the waist, drapes in soft folds, echoing the grace of her measured stance. One hand lingers at her side, lightly grasping the fabric of her dress, while the other rests upon the weathered stone—steady, yet poised for release. It is a gesture of hesitation and resolve, of remembrance and faith.
 
In the medieval world, where paths were uncertain and the will of God was the sole guide, a step forward was never taken lightly. The road ahead twists beyond sight, yet she does not falter. She has known hardship, yet she does not turn back. Her hands tell her story—one clings to what is known, the other steadies itself for what must come. And so, she walks in trust, for it is not her own will that charts the way, but the hand of the Almighty.
 
Inspired by Proverbs 16:9—"In their hearts humans plan their course, but the Lord establishes their steps"—this piece embodies the spirit of faith: resolute, enduring, and ever guided by God.
 
A striking addition to any collection, A Trusting Step speaks to the heart of all who stand upon the threshold of the unknown, called to walk forward with unwavering trust.
