“The red rose, symbol of ardent love, image of the soul living, growing, and flowering in Christ, should also be in the garden. The rose pleases all eyes; it is a delight, a consolation. Roses mean a feast, and it must be a feast wherever we are – always a happy face, always helpful. The Little Flower, that full-blown rose, not wavering on its stem, but proudly spreading its petals to be cast before the Blessed Sacrament, is an image of our task of preparing the way for our Lord in the hearts of men.”
Bl. Titus Brandsma
