My dear brothers and sisters, as we gather here today, let us reflect on the profound wisdom that a candle loses nothing by lighting another candle. In our lives, we have the incredible opportunity to uplift and inspire those around us without diminishing our own light. Just as a candle shines brightly in the darkness, so too can we illuminate the paths of others with our kindness, compassion, and love.

In a world that can often feel cold and dark, let us be beacons of hope and warmth for those in need. By extending a helping hand, offering a listening ear, or simply sharing a smile, we can make a difference in the lives of others. Let us remember that the light we give to others not only brightens their days but also brings us joy and fulfilment in return.

May we always be willing to share our light with those around us, knowing that the more candles we light, the brighter the world becomes. Let us be like candles, radiating light and love, spreading warmth and comfort wherever we go. For in lighting others, we find that our own light shines even brighter.

JESUS IS LORD
