3rd Candle
One: We have lit the first two candles, one for hope and one for
peace. Today we light the third candle, the candle of joy. This
should be the easy one, because joy is all around us—in the
children, the lights, the
music, the gathering together. But how often do we let our
preparations—or our memories—push joy to the side? Joy is
like an underground spring that wells up within us, but joy is
also a choice, an attitude. Like a muscle, it needs to be exer-
cised. So today we open ourselves to joy, trusting that God has
already planted it in us. All we need to do is give it care and of-
fer it to share.
All: Loving God, we open ourselves to you,
trusting that this is how you made us:
you created us for joy-filled hearts and lives.
Show us the creative power of hope.
Teach us the peace that comes from justice.
Fill us with the kind of joy that cannot be contained, but
must be shared.
Prepare our hearts to be transformed by you,
That we may walk in the light of Christ. Amen.
