Having recently completed the painting ‘St. Francis preaching to the birds’ (see Gallery), I was inspired taking a walk through my local park where I came across some daffodils.

It made me stop and think of the beautiful symbolism of prayer. They are all completely open and turned outward facing God the ‘Son’. They all stand straight and proud, in joy and happiness to be giving our Creator all the love and praise in perfect justice. The trumpet shape made me think of ears listening to the word of God and obeying His commands. Pray without ceasing.

Resurrexit! Sicuit dixit! Alleluia!
