“Revelation and Peace”

“’Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord. This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.’ Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying, Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.” Luke 2:10-14

Today we relight the candles of Expectation and Hope, recalling God’s promise.

The candle of Preparation of Peace, remembering the voice crying in the wilderness, urging the people to prepare the way of the coming Lord

The candle of Proclamation and Joy, reminding us of the joy found in HIM.

Now we light the candle of Revelation and Peace. We celebrate the announcement of the coming King and the greatness of God’s love revealed through the Christ child.

Prayer: Father, we thank you for reveling yourself though Jesus, and we praise you for the greatness of your love. Help us to share your peace with others and live our lives more like Christ every day. In His name we pray. Amen.
