The symbolic meanings given to flowers according to their characteristics are called the “language of flowers.” For example, the green rose symbolizes “noble love that exists only in heaven.” I learned this from a new sister I met at a club gathering, and for some reason, it deeply moved me. That encounter sparked my curiosity about the meanings of other flowers as well.

The hyacinth represents humble love, the cotton flower signifies a mother’s love, and the morning glory stands for good news.

The moment I learned that the morning glory symbolizes good news, I was immediately reminded of our mission to proclaim the gospel of heaven. As those who spread the good news of the kingdom of heaven with the trumpet of the gospel, we are like spiritual morning glories—blooming each day to deliver joy and hope to the world.
