My parish is currently in the midst of an Advent "Novena of Masses" between December 15th thru 23rd in spiritual preparation for Christmas. Each day starts with a Holy Hour of Eucharistic Adoration and prayer in the morning. Then, in the evening, there's a Mass preceded by the Rosary; the days end with refreshments and fellowship. It's all so meaningful and beautiful.
At last night's Saturday evening prayers - Day 6 of our Novena and the Vigil Mass of the 4th Sunday of Advent - this author witnessed a familiar bearded face mysteriously appear on the glass surface of the 4th Candle in our Advent Wreath during the Rosary ... and He was smiling! I thought to myself: How appropriate and relevant that the Lord would manifest His likeness on the candle that represents LOVE! It was a message in itself.
"God is love. Whoever lives in love
lives in God, and God in them."
1 John 4:16
