Prayer For Flowers
May we each be healed by flowers, time to ourselves to sit on the earth and sing, and the simple, every day beauties and miracles that surround us each day.
I pray for flowers
I pray for the flowers that grow in the garden,
I pray for the flowers that grow on the trees.
I pray for the flowers that grow in our hearts.
Flowers are beautiful, and we should take care of them.
Dear God,
We pray to you today to bless our flowers with your holy light. We ask that they grow in the warmth of your love and grace. Bless them so that they are fruitful and multiply in number, so that they may bring joy to all who see them. May they be a reminder of your love for us, and an inspiration to reflect that same love in our own lives. We pray this in Jesus’ name, Amen.
Dear God,
Please bless the flowers with your presence. Please let their colors shine, and let them be a reminder of your beauty to those who gaze upon them.
May they bring joy to the hearts of all who see them. May they bring peace to those who grow them, and may they be a symbol of hope for those in need of it.
Help us to remember your love for all things as we look upon these beautiful creations of yours. In Jesus’s name, amen.
Dear God,
We thank you for the flowers you have blessed us with. They are a symbol of beauty and life, and they show us your many wonders. We are thankful for the way they bring joy to our lives, and we ask that you bless them with continued growth. May they continue to be a source of pleasure and peace in this world.
Amen
Dear God,
Please send me flowers.
I want to bring joy to others, and this seems like the best way to do it.
And I’d like them in a vase with water that has been blessed by a holy man.
In Jesus’ name, Amen
Ways to Pray with Flowers
“O almighty everlasting God we beseech thee to bless these flowers…that there may be in them goodness, virtue, tranquility, peace, victory, abundance of good things, the plenitude of blessing, thanksgiving to God the Father and the Son and the Holy Ghost, and a most pleasing commemoration of the glorious Mother of God— .
Spring and summer supply a beautiful opportunity to pray in new ways, and one of those ways is to pray with flowers.
The use of flowers to communicate different sentiments has largely disappeared in our day, but the rich symbolism of different flowers can add color to your prayers. For example, at the beginning of 17th century England, when Shakespeare wrote Hamlet, flowers meant more than simple decoration; many communicated a symbolic message. Thus, when poor Ophelia mourns her murdered father, she says:
There’s rosemary, that’s for remembrance; pray you, love, remember. And there is pansies, that’s for thoughts….There’s fennel for you, and columbines. There’s rue for you, and here’s some for me. We may call it herb of grace o’ Sundays. O, you must wear your rue with a difference! There’s a daisy. I would give you some violets, but they wither’d all when my father died. They say he made a good end (Hamlet, Act 4, Scene 5).
It all seems a little strange, even crazy, to us, but to the play’s first audiences her words would have been rich with meaning. She explained (to her brother) why she gave him rosemary and pansies. Fennel was the symbol for flattery and columbine for deceived or faithless lovers. Rue symbolized bitterness, and daisies innocence, while violets signified loyalty and faithfulness.
So how might a person pray with flowers today? The possibilities are as varied as a garden, but here are a few ideas:
1) Pray as you plant.
You may want to research the traditional symbolism of various flowers (such as those above), or you may want to assign your own meaning to each kind of flower as you plant—for instance, praying for innocent children as you plant daisies and for family members as you plant forget-me-nots. Or you might ask God for health as you plant aloe and for a loving heart as you plant carnations.
2) Pray according to color.
Traditionally, white flowers (such as daisies or white violets) signified innocence, red (such as a red rose, tulip, or chrysanthemum) indicated love, and a yellow carnation or rose sometimes meant disdain or rejection.
3) Pray as you arrange.
In creating a centerpiece arrangement for your table or a bouquet for a friend, why not utter a prayer with each flower or plant that you put in place?
4) Pray as you give.
Much as some people light a candle as a form of prayer for someone else, you might give a flower to someone as a form of prayer, whether you explain your prayer or keep it to yourself. You might even mail a dried flower or a packet of seeds to someone as a prayer.
5) Use a flower as a prayer aid.
Some people pray with beads, as a way of reminding them or focusing their thoughts. Similarly, you might pluck the petals from a daisy, praying for a different person as you pluck each one. Or use each new blossom on your house plant as a reminder to pray for someone you love.
6) Pray with others.
Invite friends over for tea or a meal and have each person bring a flower that expresses a prayer of his or her heart.
Praying with flowers can be beautiful—and fragrant way to pray. Try it, share it, and let prayer bloom in your life this year.
