It takes only a little bit of illumination to guide us through any amount of darkness:
A single beam from a thumb-sized flashlight lifts the shadows for a walk after sunset;
A tiny nightlight softly washes away midnight fears in a child’s bedroom;
A lonely coastal lighthouse splits the blackness and wards off peril.
It takes only a little bit of illumination to guide us through any amount of darkness.
It takes only one candle for us to catch a glimpse of where we should step on the way to Christmas.
It takes only one candle for us to stay on watch.
We pray:
We light a candle to remind ourselves that You show us what we need to see. Give us attentiveness as we practice Advent. Amen.
