Mrs. Heart’s 8th Message

Published by Jenny Heart in Offbeat

Today’s message is about candles.

Candles are beautiful and usually specially scented. They can brighten a gloomy day as well as help people through a bad thunderstorm that may be headed their way. Storms can be frightening; however a candle can save the day.

These candles of multiple purposes represent light and how dark the world would look without it. Think! How distressing would the world look without the sun’s bright light? It’s the same feeling you get when a storm hits and there’s no candle in sight.

God said at the beginning of time.” Let there be light.” As time went on different types of light came about. Lamps were used with kerosene. Time passed and flashlights were invented. These were nice handy tool for all darken situations.  Candles are still many peoples favorite inexpensive way to see this world in a more comfortable setting.

Candles are used in church to show reverence and honor for a place of worship. During wedding many churches allow the bride and groom to light a candle for this special occasion. It’s about understanding that God is the third candle. It’s about learning to keep all three candles lit in their married life. The three candles are to represent the man, the woman, and God. The pastors talks about how all three candles must stay lit in order for a marriage to be prosperous. Candles are meaningful in many ways.

Why do you like candles? Think about this answer and do practice using them for your special occasions. It could be you love candle on a dark cloudy day.  A candle can enhance a cloudy day and make it a mysterious adventure of an evening watching TV’s finest. A snack would make this candle a night to remember.

Popcorn please!

A Tall candle would be a candle to remember. Now! Remember this!

    I would be lost without candles in my house. I like what Chan Lee Peng said. There is something calming and soothing about candles.

    That’s one big friggen candle. I must also admit I am fascinated by candles. There are such varieties and there are many that I would could artwork. There are those that are designed to illuminate in interesting ways – using different densities of wax that I find especially enthralling. it’s meditative watching candles.
