The second Advent candle.

 The second candle represents Peace.

Isn't that what we long for? Both in our warring world, and in our lives.

I never knew that each day / candle had a significance but now I think about it I suppose that makes sense. Peace and being 'calm of heart' is great strength I think.

Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. John 14:27. This is a beautiful message from God. Hope you're enjoying this wonderful time of year.

So grateful for The Prince of Peace!
