the 3rd candle…

…of advent

symbolizes

joy

advent is an opportunity - to focus our thoughts - on the gift abba - has given us in his son jesus - who stepped down - from heaven - to take the form of - a man so that - we might believe

the third sunday of - advent includes lighting a - candle that represents a - symbol for joy - as a christ follower - i reflect on the - joy that abba’s plan - gives us - foretold by the prophets - and fulfilled by the life and death of christ - which is the promise - of christ’s glory-filled return

“those who have been ransomed by the lord will return. they will enter jerusalem singing, crowned with everlasting joy. sorrow and mourning will disappear, and they will be filled with joy and gladness.” isaiah 35:10

the joy of my - hope is in the - celebration of the birth - of a baby boy - his name is jesus - christ the lord - he represents hope for - our world and can - lead us towards…

a

happy day…..
