We light the candle of Love to remind us that Jesus brings us God’s love and shows us how to love others. We love each other by giving of ourselves in many ways. Perhaps the easiest way is by giving money to the various charities that seem to abound at this time of year, but harder (or should I say more difficult ways) are available to us all.
Forgiving those who hurt us in big and small ways is perhaps one of the hardest ways to show love and one of the ways I need to practice. I am going to concentrate on this over this wonderful season as I wait for that great gift to arrive. The gift of God's love in the shape of a human baby. One who came to take all our pain and sin. Seeing us exactly how we are and still loving us enough to sacrifice all.
Everybody have a wonderful evening.
God bless.
That was a beautiful post. Thank you.
