Week three of Advent is upon us, and this week we light the pink candle on the Advent wreath.
Week 3: JOY
Somewhere along the way of “growing up,” we lose sight of the joy that this season brings. We get wrapped up in worries about finances, gift giving, making a good impression at Christmas parties, and making sure everyone else is happy. However, the joy of the season is meant for everyone. The old, the young, the rich, the poor… this season isn’t about gifts. It isn’t even really about twinkling lights or sparking diamonds. It’s about being surrounded by those we love. It’s about taking joy from seeing others’ joy. It’s about the sparkle in someones eyes when they see those twinkling lights, falling snow and/or take in the story of Christmas. May we all find joy in what really matters, and may we revel in that all the days of our lives.
You have filled my heart with greater joy than when their grain and new wine abound.
Psalm 4:7
Joy, no matter what is the greatest gift to give to one and all!
Well said thanks for sharing. ;)
