Stunted growth scars any man or woman who toils through life. It's an outrageous and pressuring scar that can only be worsened by public humiliation, disappointment, and lectures. To be withheld from hard-earned victory is to be imprisoned: imprisoned in a place where there is only one cell reserved for you. You drink from your tears and eat the crumbs of your blessed days.

Flowers have many scars that are covered by their beauty. Scars may include losing a loved one, lacking something needful and feeling lonely. Each scar might be equally or greatly painful, in reflection of how they were experienced. Trauma for it to occur again becomes apparent. The very idea of facing such a grave difficulty again is not something you wish to handle.

One of the greatest scars for a flower is stunted growth. If it does not get the water or sunlight it requires, it might die. If it's slow to grow or size, it might die. If it doesn't bloom or receive pollen, it will die. Most flowers may not suffer from this case, but to those, it does occur. The two paragraphs presented will sound relatable or understandable.

The reassurance for stunted growth comes from a great promise. The fact that Jesus Christ has begun a good work in you, will be performed on the day of His coming. Being a flower of this world will give you charm and beauty, but being a flower of God will produce greater beauty. It will not be easy to grow up as one but in the end. You will be a perfect flower.

A perfect flower covered by the red robes of Jesus Christ.
