Advent 3 ~ Peace

 


Today, I encourage you to find a version of “I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day” to listen to.  You can find multiple versions on YouTube ~ there is one posted above.

 

Listen to the Carol three times.

 

First, listen to the words.  What is evoked and provoked on this third day of leaning into the words.

Second, listen to the melody/harmony.  How does the music take you on the journey for initially hearing the sweet bells, to hanging your head at the despair in the world, to the resolve that God is presence.

Third, listen for what is awoken with you.  How does your shy soul long to respond to this Carol in these December days?

 

May this prayer practice help you be awake and alert to God’s peace/presence in these days.  Amen.
