Description
©2017, Nancy Cupp. All rights reserved. Touched By His Light is an acrylic painting on 20 x 16 inch canvas by Nancy Cupp. It is a bright red tulip with a black center "floating" against a blue background.
Tulips originated in Turkey and Persia, with people wearing the tulips in their turban. Tulip means turban in Persian. The general meaning of tulips is perfect love and the red tulip represents true love.
When I was a little girl, my first experience with flowers was the tulip, which grew next door. I picked some for my mother and she made me take it back, because it didn’t belong to us. I had to apologize for picking the neighbor’s flowers and learned a lesson in respecting other people’s property.
I never lost my attraction to these bright colored flowers. When I was old enough to grow my own, it was a delight to study them one day for a painting I wanted to do. This was a profound experience for me, mesmerized by the awesome design of God’s creations. I had to stop and ponder all the fine detail and intricate design of putting this flower together. I could see the math in it, 6 petals, 6 stamens, patterns of the same shaped design on each petal, etc. the reproductive system, everything that makes it a tulip.
I had to stop right then and there and thank God for his awesome beauty and design. It became a spiritual moment, a time to worship and thank Him for this gift to me. It was like with each flower, God was blowing me a kiss! I could see His love pouring out through a simple flower. Everything He designs is backed by and through His love, the most powerful force in the universe.
Today I decided to look up the meaning of tulips and wouldn’t you know it? It means perfect love with the red tulip meaning true love. While the world seeks love in all the wrong places, His love is all around us, if we just stop long enough to see it.
Romans 8:39 No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord
