Sunday Flower

This is for you.  
Yes, you.  Has anyone ever given you a flower before?  
You deserve it.  
Even if you don’t think so, I would still like you to have it.
Because you are beautiful.  
You have been created for a specific purpose on this earth, that 
Only you can do.  
You are important.


Recently, someone I know died way too young… and I wonder
If he knew that he was important.

Irreplaceable.

I wonder if someone ever gave him a flower, and told him everything was going to be okay.

It will be okay!

When I look into this flower, just one flower in this big, crazy, painful world,
I see peace.
And beauty.

And I see that God cares.

He loves you.  
Flowers are like his messages of Love, reminding you that you are worth it.  They grow everywhere…  For you.

They grow in places where there are wars and hatred and violence and fear and chaos.

They need nothing from you, just a bit of dirt and a rainstorm or two, and there they are.

Beautiful.

Bringing you a message of Hope.

If they can rise from the dirt, you can too.

Just like God, who is watching you, loving you.

And it’s all going to be okay.

I promise.
