Emblem of Spiritualism
One tiny seed is placed in the dark of Mother Earth, it
is watered by rain from Heaven, blessed by man and often
grows as tall as six feet. just like man. When they become
mature and in harvest season, so rich from God's blessings,
they often become, like man, stooped with age.
The main stalk is strong which is the life center and often
has seven branches or twigs symbolizing the seven days of the
week. Also, it has 12 green leaves representing the 12 months
of the year. The branches often have three nice sun flowers
symbolizing the Blessed Trinity. Each flower has 52 golden
yellow petals, which represents the 52 weeks of the year. In
the center of the yellow frame of petals are 365 rich seeds
representing our calendar year. These seeds are protected
from weather by husks, and contain a sweet meat and oil for
the nourishment of our bodies. Even the birds of the air feed
on them. Each morning, the sunflower faces the rising sun to
the East, as to say, 'Good Morning to the Great Spirit.'
We call this beautiful stately flower of God, the Emblem of
Spiritualism.
The flowers are often planted in a cluster, or a long row and
act as a fence or barrier from storms and shade from the hot
summer sun. We're all blest with a very wealthy Father who
meets our every need, and if we would remember that
self-preservation is nature's first law, we would thank God
for our Health, Wealth, Prosperity, and Spirituality in the
knowledge of the life of the Sunflower. Truly, our God is
Wonderful!
