The four Advent candles are lit ...

Hi everyone, 

Is it possible that we are now at the Sunday before Christmas? 

We have now lit all 4 Advent candles - one each Sunday and this coming Sunday - Christmas Day, I will light the white one along with the others while we have breakfast together. 

I love the flickering light as it ~ s l o w s ~ the time down & reminds us what is really important this time of the year. 

Amidst the rush to create the perfect Christmas, breathe deeply, slow down, practice gratitude for the blessings you have and the troubles you don't,  seek solitude amidst the noise and most of all, be kind - the last 3 years have bruised people .... 

The traditional meaning of the Advent candles, 

First candle - purple for HOPE 

Second candle - purple for LOVE

Third candle - pink for JOY

Fourth candle - purple for PEACE 

Fifth candle on Christmas eve - ivory for CHRISTMAS

Thank you for stopping by, reading & leaving a comment ....
