In the vast, barreness of the deserts of our world, Sometimes a single thing of beauty grows. They are different shapes and sizes, colors too. Don't know the technical name--people call it the Desert Rose.
They've adapted to the harshness of their surroundings, sometimes they bloom, sometimes they don't. Poets write about all kinds of roses, but for these. You can't find a quote.
There are people like that--they are kind and good. They try and make the best of their lives. Against enormous odds, people think they can't do it, But they not only survive, they thrive.
You may not have ever seen a real Desert Rose growing in the desert; but I'm sure you know People with the same determination, who Despite all odds continue to grow.
Don't let life and the world intimidate you. You may feel the odds are unevenly stacked. But always remember you're not alone. God always has your back.
