Peace

Peace Week Two – Advent

Peace       Week Two – Advent

This past Sunday marked the second Sunday of Advent. Many churches and families celebrate Advent by lighting a candle each week in an Advent wreath. Each candle represents a specific aspect of Jesus and His Ministry.

The second candle, the one that was lit last Sunday, is the Candle of Peace. It is a purple candle that symbolizes the perfect peace that Jesus gives each of His believers.

Jesus said, “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

Since the beginning, Satan has been fighting against goodness, and humans have fought against God, making the earth a battleground. So, how do we find our peace in the midst of this?

Why Orderliness is a Key Aspect of God

Why Orderliness is a Key Aspect of God

Organization is not one of my strengths.

There I said it.

It isn’t easy to admit. I would love to be able to say that I am highly organized.

But I am not.

My daughter is. She has EVERYTHING organized. Toys, books, drawers. All sorted, labeled and well placed.

She did not get that gene from me.

But, I appreciate it. And, I can see how it is reflective of God.

How is that?
