So today, I wish you some of that peace and gentleness.
But we can choose, in our own, individual worlds, to be different.
In a way, our lives are somewhat like candlelight.
At times, they are strong and bright with light.
Then, they grow dimmer as they burn down yet still add light.
Throughout life, lighting a candle in church accompanied prayer.
Usually it was for a specific intention.
Today, that intention is peace and gentleness for you.
DO YOU BURN CANDLES FREQUENTLY IN YOUR HOME?

Beautiful post today Susan, I burn candles almost every day, I find it cosy and comforting (in a way).
Enjoy your Sunday
A wonderful blessing you have given us :)Thank you.Denise
I love the glow of candlelight, though we don't burn candles often here.
I send wishes for a blessed Sunday!
Susan you are such a blessing to me! I love candle light. I don't often burn candles but when I do they seem to bring magical light to my home.
hugs,
Linda
Candlelight is enchanting, isn't it? I especially love candlelight in the winter and on grey days; it adds light and (if we choose) fragrance. It makes a room cozy and peaceful.
I remember going to church as a child and seeing all the candles lit for special intentions. On some occasions we were able to light a candle for our own special intention. Your pictures reminded me of that time in my life. Thanks.
Peace be with you.
That is beautiful!!!!!! No I do not burn candles as there is a 12 year old who loves to play with them. I do have those little flickering ones - and I have two that I never let go out - upstairs and down - it reminds me all I need is that much hope and faith.
Love, sandie
Love to burn candles, and even love to have little lights burning. It creates such a lovely, cozy, and soothing atmosphere to my home. Thank you for sharing you thoughts.
Lovely candles and commentary, Susan.
A lot of candles play up with my nose so no I don't very often burn them inside, outside is fine.

Hi Susan ...... I don't burn candles but my Mum burns a candle every night while she says her prayers and has done this for many years....Mum lives with me and Hubby....maybe this counts as a house candle...
Beautiful post...
Hugs and Blessings

Our church does not have candles in it like where you live. I do not burn candles at my home often at all...I remember lighting them when I was a child in church and praying so hard for something.
I do like candles and candle light as it gives that good feeling of hope and home. for me at least.
Seldom. Although, I did all the time at every meal time when my boys were little.
Will have to get back to it.
Most every day I burn candles. Sometimes I'm in the mood for a . little candlelight and I use tea lights. Other times I pull out the three wick candles.
It all depends on what kind of a day I've had!
