The Season of Advent

 We are celebrating the first week of Advent!  Such an exciting time at our house!  This week, we light the first candle on our Advent Wreath each morning.  As we light it we say...

"With this candle we remember God’s promise of HOPE, His promise of our Savior Jesus Christ.  We wait in HOPE.  He brings HOPE to the world.  This first candle, we light in HOPE."

We will light one more candle each week.  This is what we will say...

Second Light:  "With this candle we remember God’s promise of LOVE, His promise of our Savior Jesus Christ.  We wait in LOVE.  He brings LOVE to the world.  This first candle, we light in LOVE."
 
Third Light:  "With this candle we remember God’s promise of PEACE, His promise of our Savior Jesus Christ.  We wait in PEACE.  He brings PEACE to the world.  This first candle, we light in PEACE."
 
Fourth Light:  "With this candle we remember God’s promise of JOY, His promise of our Savior Jesus Christ.  We wait in JOY.  He brings JOY to the world.  This first candle, we light in JOY."

I love these verses so much because they use words like "remember" and "wait".  This is what the Advent Season is all about.  Remembering, waiting, anticipating, and celebrating!
