容赦 (yousha)

The Japanese word 容赦 is composed of the kanji (read you) meaning "contains; forms" and (read sha) meaning "forgiveness; pardon". yousha is used in the Christian context as when talking about the importance of forgiveness and being forgiven.

This artwork is a beautiful visual reminder of the central role forgiveness plays in our lives.
