Here is a passage from their website. . . so inspiring I wanted to share on this Sunday edition of

“DOWN A CAROLINA ROAD”

The Four Candles Of Light Story

Four Candles slowly burn

The Glow  was so soft one could almost hear them talking

the first candle said “ I am PEACE, the world is full of anger

and fighting, nobody can keep me lit “, Then the flame of peace

went out completely.

Then the second candle said “I am FAITH, I am no longer

indispensable , it does not make sense that I stay lit another

moment “ just then a soft breeze blew out FAITH’s flame.

Sadly the third candle begin to speak  “I am LOVE, people

do not understand my importance, so they just simply put

me aside , they even forget  to love those who are nearest to

them , I have not the strength to stay lit “ and waiting

no longer, LOVE’S flame went out.

Suddenly a child entered the room and saw the 3 unlit candles;

he shouted out ,“ Why aren’t you burning ? You are supposed to

stay lit to the end !”  Saying this the child began to cry.

Then the Fourth candle answered out, “ Don’t be afraid, I am

HOPE, while I am still burning we can relight  the other candles”.

With shining eyes , the child took the candle of HOPE and

relit the other candles.

The flame of HOPE should never go out from your life and with

HOPE each of us can live a life with PEACE, FAITH and LOVE
