THE SAD STORY OF THE FOUR CANDLES



                      ROMANS 05 ; 03 - 04

 And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also; knowing that tribulation brings patient, and patient brings experience, and experience also brings hope.

                 One evening, four candles were burning slowly whiles having a conversation.
The ambiance was so soft one could almost hear them talking.



                                              The first candle said; i am PEACE but the world is full of anger and fighting, and nobody wants to keep me lit, and slowly it cried and went off.
                                                     

                                                  The second candle said; i am FAITH, but i am no longer indispensable and it doesn't make sense that i still have to stay lit again, and slowly it went off.


Sadly the third candle cried and said; i am LOVE, but people don't have me anymore, they have replaced me with hatred in their heart, they revenge and hurts others. People don't understand my importance anymore, and slowly love burned away.





Suddenly a child entered the room and saw the three unlit candles, why aren't you burning? You are supposed to stay lit until the end. Whiles saying this the child began to cry....


Then the fourth candle said, don't be afraid; i am HOPE, and whiles i am still burning,
we can re-light the other candles in this dark world.


with shining eyes the child took the candle of hope and lit the other candles.


MORAL LESSON

 The greatest of all things is LOVE, but the flame of HOPE should never go out of your life, with HOPE each of us can live with PEACE, FAITH and LOVE.

PRAYER

 Dear Jesus, you are my light and salvation. You are my hope. Please come into my heart, forgive all my wrongs and give me your wonderful gift of eternal Life. Help me be an instrument of your love and cause your light to shine on others through me,Amen

    Wow. Really inspiring. I pray for hope for our generation so that even if love, faith and peace seem to be no more, hope will bring back what we have lost. God bless you so so much Andy Y. More grace
