FOURTH SUNDAY OF ADVENT = LOVE!

Since December 30, 2025, at our church we have celebrated 3 different aspects of advent each week.
Hope, Peace, and Joy.
Today....LOVE! LOVE!! LOVE!!! LOVE !!!! is our focus!
Today, as we wait in remembrance of Christ's nativity,
 we light the purple candle of LOVE.......
to celebrate the coming of Jesus the Christ Child.....
.......our Savior! 


It also points ahead to His promised return. 
Christ's return in the Second Coming.
Reflection, prayer and expectant celebration!

GOD IS LOVE! (1 JOHN 4:8)

BEHOLDING WONDER!

Christmas Eve journaling.....
Hark (Behold) Pay attention.

Dr. Luke invites us to behold the birth of Jesus. Behold God's mercy in the manger.

Unwrap Jesus in His humanity.
Unwrap Jesus at the cross. 
At the cross, He was wrapped in our sins, to give us His righteousness.

Come let us adore Him.
Changing gloom to gladness.

"The essence of the Christian message is not Behave! but Behold!" (Jared Wilson)

Beholding changed to wonder is where life begins!
