Prayer Won't Help Now

I finally finished this work today. I have been trying to create a scene of hopelessness. I chose a Sci-Fi setting to protray it in, such as worlds, space matter burning, exploding, and destruction. A personal challenge for myself to venture in this area. I am a huge Sci-fi fan. I have been struggling with this one. Today, had some tough news to deal with, so went to work on this since the problem is something I can not help with even though I want to lend a hand. I usually fill my art with beauty and cheer, but I don't always, of course feel it. It does lift my moods most of the time. Today,was rough, and I am helping others the best I can, I know that I am so feel better now, but needed something different to express frustration. I think it worked for me, I let it out, and cleared my head. Prayer is something I never give up on, so please do not think from the title that I have. If you are a Sci-fi fan, it's most often what seems to be hopeless, and with the odds against you that at the last second something unexpected or someone comes to the rescue. If not, the attitude, of we died fighting and trying seems to prevail. So, I have not given up, this is my "moment" of lowness, and doubt, tomorrow is coming, I will greet the day and have faith. An answer will come my way, if meant to. I'm just using my feelings for a muse, and it has helped me think things out. Things will be better tomorrow. I have the answer to my prayers already. Faith is the answer, and will always be. If you notice, I did use some symbolism in the design, cross shape, etc. You have to look to spot some of it. Let me know what this designs makes you feel or see.
