Candle of Light

In the winter, and even in the summer, sometimes, I love to burn candles. I usually buy the combo special from the Old Virginia Candle Company. The candles that I like, are made from 3 different colors of wax and have 3 different distinct scents. For example, the one that I had for Christmas was red, white, and green. It was called, "The Merry Christmas Candle" and had scents of Mistletoe, Evergreen, and Holly Berry. The candles fill the room with a warm glow and a wonderful aroma--you feel secure and content. Matthew 5:14-16 says, "You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do men light a lamp, and put it under the peck-measure, but on the lampstand; and it gives light to all who are in the house. Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven." I want my life to be like that candle and I want to glorify the Candlemaker of Men.
