Coneflowers, or Echinacea flowers have been used all over the world to help with a wide range of illnesses and conditions and therefore symbolize strength and health. Although I am thankful for all the natural remedies God has provided on the earth, I look to Him for my healing whenever sickness comes. I have seen and experienced health through trusting in what Jesus has done on the cross.

Isaiah 53: 4-5

Surely He has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows ; yet we did esteem him smitten, stricken  by God and afflicted. But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon Him, and with His stripes we are healed. 

These words have given me peace, hope and healing, and I am forever thankful for this hope we have in Christ. These flowers remind me personally of the beauty of this hope, which comes through faith.
