The Way oil portrait painting sold or print of Jesus Christ with hands holding baby and as adult with crown of thorns, temple curtain torn

This piece titled "The Way" is a portrait painting of Jesus Christ which combines images of hands holding a baby and Jesus as an adult with the crown of of thorns, and a cross made of light sold tearing the temple curtain, allowing a crowd of people to pass through into God's presence.
Here are some of my thoughts on this piece as I planned out the composition:
Jesus is the way to the Father. The curtain reminds us of the temple curtain which was torn in two the moment that Jesus died, making a way for us to enter God's kingdom.
The hands and the baby symbolize two different things to me:
1. The baby is Jesus, sent by God into the world as a newborn.
2. The baby is you or me. We are God's children and He receives us and holds us in His hands.
John 14:6 says, "Jesus answered, 'I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."
What does this painting say to you? I'd love to hear from you.
