Candlemas
Today is the day to bless the candles as we move from darkness into light. 40 days ago the Christ Child was born. What can a groundhog tell us about our future? It's all connected: the weather, the animals, the faith and the candles. He will be a light in our darkness, a certain hope, and all creation will behold his glory. Raise your candles high in the darkness and sing a song of hope. Spring is coming (is it up ahead, around a corner, or following on the wind?). The darkness will flee away and there will be new life.
