My newest work, A Prayer for Peace, is a
poignant reminder that peace in our world is
always possible for those who believe and pray.
The dramatic figure of a prophet occupies the rocky heights above the city. To my mind, he is a
Christ figure, but I have treated him with a deep
spirituality that could well be embraced by people
of other beliefs. Illuminated by a radiant moon,
this holy person prays with all the fervor of his
faith, that the warm glow of moonlight can wrap
the walled city in a spiritual blanket of
serenity.
The hope that pervades A Prayer
for Peace is a profound reminder that through
fervent prayer each of us might find peace - for
our soul first and perhaps for our world as well.
