Rembrandt painted the light of Christ shining through the breaking of the bread in “Christ at Emmaus.” Rembrandt uses light in his paintings to express his faith. Here he shows the light of the Risen Christ shining in the faces of the two men who walked with him on the road. The artist painted the face of the servant with an expression of being in the dark. Why? The two men had their hearts burning within them when they walked with Jesus. Now their faces are burning with the light of the Risen Christ.
I will turn the darkness before them into light, the rough places into level ground.
Isaiah 42:16
Jesus took bread, blessed and broke it, and gave it to them. Then their eyes were opened, and they recognized him, and he vanished from their sight.
Luke 24:30-31
Risen Christ, thank you for the power of the resurrection. You have made this real for all your children. My darkness is turned into light and the rough places are made level. Open my eyes to the truth of your word. I recognize you as my living Savior. Because you live, I too shall live. What joy! Hallelujah! Amen.
