Description
This Red lily flower is scarlet colored, which is reminiscent of blood, specifically, the blood that Christ shed for us on the cross! For Christians, the time of Easter is a time of remembrance of the sacrifice and atonement that Christ made for us on the cross! The proper name for day lilies is Hemerocallis. According to the Hemerocallis Society, the word Hemerocallis is derived from two Greek words meaning "beauty" and "day," referring to the fact that each flower lasts only one day. It is interesting to note that the day lily is overwintered as a bulb in a cool dark place. In other words, it completely dies back in the winter, and then makes its bright and memorable appearance for one day. This is a great parallel to the Crucifixion and Resurrection of Christ! He was crucified on the cross to the point of death, then he arose on the third day. He made his glorious presence known to his disciples briefly before his ascension back into heaven.
This would make an excellent Easter card for that special loved one to commemorate the time of remembrance of Christ's sacrifice and infinite love for us!
This is an edited version of my "Scarlet Lily" painting with a religious message: "Believe...He Has Risen! This design, using my artwork, was inspired by a talented artist and jewelry maker who is on this FAA website, Carla Parris! Her website is: www.carlaparris.artistwebsites.com.
