"A Thousand Candles"
We light a thousand candles bright, around the earth today,
And all the beams will shine across the heaven's grand display.
Yes, over land and sea tonight the joyful message brings
The birth of Him, our Lord and Christ, our Savior and our King.
Dear brightest star o'er Bethlehem, O let your precious light
Shine in with hope and peace toward men in ev'ry home tonight.
In all our house so cold and dark, please send your warmth sublime,
The warmth that comes from Jesus' love this blessed Christmas time.
I love our church candlelight service. Its absolutely beautiful. My favorite part was when we sang that song, with all of our candles lit and the lights off. Its gorgeous and magical in a way. It feels so awesome to be sitting there and see the light of everyone's candles reflecting off of their faces, and them passionately singing praises to God. I love it when everyone in the church has their own candle shining, because it symbolizes how us, as Christians, need to shine in the darkness of this world for Jesus and show our love for him. How small we are compared to the rest of the world but how powerful we all are together. I love Christmas!

No not me. I'm far from perfect, but life is pretty swell right now. It really is close to perfect. And this?..this is just me.
It's the crazy ramblings from my brain, stuff I can't hold on to anymore. Stuff that I need to share, or just let go of.
