Even roses have thorns. In 2 Corinthians 12, the Apostle Paul writes,
"That is why, for Christ¡¯s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong."
Our thorns, though they may be many, when combined with God's plan, His timing, and grace, can be a beautiful thing. And this beautiful thing can be used for our good and His glory.

Rose essential oil, often referred to as the "queen of essential oils," is derived from the petals of the rose plant, typically Rosa damascena or Rosa centifolia. This essential oil is highly prized for its exquisite and alluring aroma, as well as its various therapeutic and cosmetic uses. Rose oil is renowned for its ability to promote emotional balance, reduce stress, and alleviate anxiety. Rose essential oil is a versatile oil that blends well with other essential oils, including floral oils like lavender and geranium, citrus oils like bergamot and neroli, and woody oils like sandalwood and cedarwood.
Pregnant women should avoid ingesting and topically applying undiluted essential oils throughout pregnancy. Instead, try inhaling essential oils or adding them to a diffuser.
Make sure to store essential oils out of reach of children. You¡¯ll also want to keep your oils away from excessive light or heat, as this can alter the chemical properties of an essential oil significantly.
Always supervise essential oil application with your children. Because children have more delicate skin, it¡¯s a good idea to dilute oils before applying them topically.
