Blessing of Burdens

The artwork is an illustration of a grandfather clock standing in a corner. The clock has been in the same place for three generations and has faithfully ticked off the minutes, hours, and days. The new owner of the clock thinks that the heavy weight that is pulled to the top of the clock each night in order to keep it running is too much of a burden for the old clock, so he removes it. The clock immediately stops ticking. When the man asks the clock why it stopped, the clock replies that the weight is what keeps it going.
