We lit our eighth candle last night, read our Bible verses and said our prayers. Then Sweetness played us Long, Long, Ago and another beautiful song she has learned. THis has really been a precious time for our family and we will continue this tradition each year. Our candles were a miracle itself. I posted earlier that it was Hanukah and our candles had not arrived. They're still not here! We made some homemade candles, but the wicks didn't work very well. So the next night we shaved down some taper candles to fit. The next day Treasure Hunter went shopping at an indoor flea market, Slindy's. He was sifting through a box of candles to collect more for melting and candle making seeing how Sweetness loved this activity. And what do you think he found in that box? YES! A brand new, unopened box of Hanukah candles from Israel no less. We were thrilled and praised God for His provisions.
Our next Biblical Holiday will be Purim from Esther 9:20.
'Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit,' says the LORD Almighty.
Zechariah 4
