This is straight from Rethink church---if you don't find time to sit with a candle tonight think about trying this one night during Advent--we could all use an excuse to be still---Peace!
"Today's reflection will take a little prep. Find a candle to light tonight. Perhaps you light it just as the daylight is fading. Or maybe it's something you light as you're winding down before bed.
If you don't have a candle, maybe you have a night light or a glow in the dark sticker in your child's room.
Spend some time in the dark with the light.
Sometimes we fear the dark. We are afraid of what we can't see; of what's unknown. But if you stare at the light long enough, you notice how bright the light of a small candle really can be.
As you extinguish the light, think about the places in your life or your community that could use a little light." http://rethinkchurch.org/articles/spirituality/day-7-sit-in-the-dark
