About
Through this parable, Jesus taught the importance of spiritual preparation. Just as oil kept the lamps burning, faith in Christ provides guidance, strength, and light along life’s path.
The statue invites visitors to pause and reflect on personal spiritual readiness. It suggests that preparing our hearts through faith and daily devotion can bring peace, hope, and confidence as we face both expected and unexpected moments in life.
