Research the meaning of the advent candles and you will find slightly different meanings for the candles. For the most part, the candles represent similar concepts presented in different ways. But the second candle has a wide variation of meanings attributed to it.
One meaning for this candle is love and I choose to focus on this one. Why? Because I believe the whole season of Christmas –Advent, Christmas Day, the 12 days of Christmas –everything about this season has to do with Love. We could call it the Season of Love.
Christmas starts with God loving us.
John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life
He gave us the ultimate gift out of love. And because He loved us so much we love Him.
1 John 4 19 We love him, because he first loved us.
Jesus says if we love Him that we should keep His commands. And what does Jesus command.
John 15
12 This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.
