I love all the lights of Christmas!
I love the multi-colored lights sparkling on our tree.
I love the icicle lights hanging from the homes in our neighborhood along with bushes decorated with tiny flowers of light.
I love the dancing flames of our fireplace.
I love the glowing luminarias lighting the path for Mary and Joseph.
I love the flickering candles.
One of my favorite Christmas memories is attending church on Christmas Eve as child…..the pageant, the carols, the story of Jesus’ birth….but especially holding the white candle lit by passing the flame from the candle on the altar to each person from the front pew to the back. As we silently left the church, we would shelter the flicking light wanting to arrive home with our candle still shining.
Jesus is that light.
There is a lighted cross in our window this year, a reminder that there is a light in our lives—always.
Our prayer for you this Christmas is that your path is always lighted.
Blessings to you for a shining Christmas!
“I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” John 8:12
