On November 30th, the first Sunday in Advent, we lit the first candle on our Advent wreath - the hope candle. We look in eager anticipation to the coming of the Messiah.
Last Sunday we lit the second candle - the peace candle. We thank God for the coming Christ who will bring forgiveness for our sins.
Today we light the third Advent candle, the pink joy candle, to show that the light has now overcome the darkness. Praise be to God!
Beautiful. :)
