"When I think about arising and shining forth, I think about the temple. The temple makes me want to live a life that is always acceptable in the eyes of God. The glowing temple is a reminder of how I want to arise and shine forth with the Light of Christ. In the background, there is a storm, such as we all have in our lives. We can choose to let the storm destroy us or bring us closer to God. Even through the storm, the temple shines forth. I wanted to show the reflection of the sky onto the temple, and show that we can share our colors and reflect on others. We can arise and shine forth and influence people’s lives, just as the temple influences our lives."
