Candles of Advent: Light
As you look at this rendition of a scene you’ve undoubtedly seen many times, can you use your imagination to picture yourself somewhere in this scene? What does it feel like, standing there in the snow under the starlight of a mysterious, calm sky? How does your mind process the miracle in front of you – God in the flesh, so vulnerable and small.
What would you feel? Would you laugh with joy? Would you be moved to tears? Would you stand speechless? What would you be inclined to do in response? Would you sing? Would you bow? Would you run to spread the news? Would you frantically search for a gift to bring?
