Description
My black cat loves the Christmas season, especially Advent when his owners light a candle each night. They begin with lighting one, then a second and so forth until Christmas day when all five candles are lit and it is a beautiful sight to behold! Design copyright Donna Mibus. This wreath is just like the one my husband and I use each Advent. I miss the days when my children were young and still living at home. Lighting the candles was always something they loved to do. One lit them and the other snuffed them out. While the candles burned we would have our devotion and read the account of the first Christmas from the Bible. I have such wonderful memories of those times!
Here is an explanation how we use our Advent wreath:
The first candle is lit on the First Sunday in Advent; and an additional candle is lit on each successive Sunday. The first candle is the Prophecy Candle, recalling the Old Testament period of waiting. The second candle is the Bethlehem Candle, symbolic of the preparations being made to receive and to cradle the Christ Child. The third is the Shepherd's Candle which typifies the act of sharing Christ as did the shepherds. This third candle is pink, symbolizing joy. The fourth candle is the Angel's Candle of love and final coming. The candles, except the Shepherd's Candle, are traditionally purple – symbolizing the royalty of Christ, the King. Some people have a fifth candle, the Christ Candle, which is lit on Christmas day. Our family uses all five candles. It is my favorite time of year!
