A Hand from God

Dracula

Picture Description
I made it based on a scene from Bram Stoker's Dracula.

I consider Dracula as a symbol of a human tragedy.

He was a man of God until HE gave him a trial beyond his strength (his wife was murdered while he was, ironically, away fighting for HIM in the crusade).
He was mad at HIM, and fell to the dark side for hundreds of years.
God did nothing and let him go.
When he was finally severely wounded by God's men, he wept looking back at his life. He had always been devoted to God, but HE let his wife murdered and left him when he needed HIM the most.
His dying words were,
"Where is my God? HE has forsaken me. It is finished."
In the end, however, God showed HIS grace. HE stretched HIS hand, reached him, and gave him the peace he had been longing for (characterized by a transformation of his devilish face into his former face as man of God).
