Sometimes we focus too much on the dying people around us and not the other Christians in the background. We have to go into all the world, but we have to do so together and we will never be together unless we take the focus off and see everything. 
I saw this and decided it was a miniature and stone form of me. 
This flower is beautiful and God created it even though it has blemishes. Everyone has blemishes. All Christian—everyone. It is so typical for us to look at someone and see the blemishes and push them away, like a flower with a torn petal.
Sometimes the forces of nature seem to hold us down and we need a hand to lift us op.
Sometimes Christians are dying right in front od us, but we cannot even see them because of the living Christians they are surrounded by. Sometimes they’ll try to do things to blend in, but in the end, you can always tell the dead from the living.
Some of the most disgusting things can create some of the most beautiful things. 
God gave us the beauty around us and we should enjoy it!
We are called to be different, no matter how much of the same is around us. 
It is not always easy to see who is standing in God’s light.
