A White Lily and a quotation from John 4:13-14
The magnificent white lily known as the Easter Lily has long stood as a symbol of purity hope innocence and peace. Also called the Bermuda lily the Trumpet lily and Jacob s Tears the Easter lily is a biblical flower commonly associated with the resurrection of Christ. In Christian tradition the Easter lily signifies rebirth and a new beginning. It is said that beautiful white lilies sprang up in the Garden of Gethsemane where Jesus wept in the last hours before he was betrayed by Judas. Another legend claims that the white lilies grew from the repentant tears shed by Eve upon her departure from Paradise. The lily is mentioned frequently throughout the bible and serves today as a beautiful reminder of the significance of the Easter season. Easter lilies grace homes and churches each spring as a symbol of purity joy hope and life. Here I took the Easter lily and placed it with water showing the significance of the saving grace we find through the watery grave of baptism.
