Christians!Observe once and for all how the sunflower even on gloomy days pursues its circular course,following the sun with the unchanging love and attraction natural to it.Our sun,illuminating our path through this world,is the will of God;it does not always illuminate our path in life without clouds;often clear days are followed by gloomy ones;rain,wind,storms arise.
But let our love for our Sun,the will of God,be so strong that we may continue,inseparably from it,even in days of misfortune and sorrows,like the sunflower on gloomy days,to navigate faultlessly on the sea of life,following the indications of the 'barometer' and 'compass' of the will of God,which leads us into the safe harbor of eternity.
St. John of Tobolsk
