The Victorians may have encoded messages in floral arrangements, but the one message of life that no one should overlook is the one straight-forwardly given in GOD'S HOLY BOOK, the BIBLE...
...the one that says, "EXCEPT A MAN BE BORN AGAIN, HE CANNOT SEE THE KINGDOM OF GOD." John 3:3
If you have not repented of and allowed your sin to be washed away by the shed blood of JESUS CHRIST, you cannot be reborn from death to life, you cannot be delivered from the chains of death that bind you.
Yes, these are subtle chains...you can't see them, you can't feel them,
but you can see their effect upon your life. The chains of sin impact
every endeavor, every relationship, every aspect of your life, but more
concerning is the fact that they impact your eternity.
You do not need to decode a bouquet of flowers in order to be born again. All you need to do is accept the open invitation the LORD has given you. All you have to do is receive HIS "unspeakable gift," and you will be reborn; you will be free for time and eternity.

Victorians used flowers as we use emoji.
