Recovery Meditations

In many churches on Sunday of this week, the second candle in the Advent wreath was lit.

These are days in which we consider the giving of Christmas gifts to those we love.

There's a beautiful simple song that says, "In His time, in His time, He makes all things beautiful in His time .
