Discover XMAS, aka Christmas Labyrinth
Available as -> Discover XMAS, aka Christmas Build-A-Journal Home & Lifestyle Products -> Fine Art America -> RedBubble -> Society6 -> TeePublic Mindful Moment Labyrinth Walk Video -> Vimeo -> YouTube -> TikTok |
Discover XMAS, aka Christmas, and be the light sharing the love made visible through the birth of Jesus Christ in the manger. XMAS – aka Christmas – is a time to remember and ponder the story of that first Christmas and the love that was and continues to be made visible through the birth of Jesus Christ in a manger. Although the world can seem dark at times, scripture invites us to be the light and share the love. Each day another section of the art quilt of life is sewn together. Moment by moment life experiences and meaning making structures are stitched together by time and space. Ensure each day adds to the art quilt of life in a most bright and beautiful way. Take time to contemplate the inspirational scripture for this design: “You are the light of the world” (Matthew 5:14). If that is truly true – what does it mean for life? “Walk” the labyrinth path mentally or with a finger – hint… follow the light string to the top star. Meditate and reflect on life – imagine being the light this XMAS, aka Christmas.
There are several symbols within the labyrinth art design, including... The light string has various configurations of lights. The 4 lights, 3 blue and 1 magenta, represent the 4 gospel writers in the Bible, and the magenta symbolizes the text of Matthew which serves as the contemplative scripture for the design (Matthew 5:14 You are the light of the world.). The cluster of 7 reddish/orange lights represent the 7 days of creation, a reminder that a new reality is constantly emerging each and every day. The cluster of 3 lights symbolize the tradition of the Trinity, the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit or the Creator, Redeemer, and Sustainer - a constant reminder that we are not alone on this journey of life, that the Spirit is ever present. The large yellow light with orange center symbolize the balance of our own reality between focusing on our secondary/preliminary concern vs our ultimate concern - what overarching life focus (yellow, ultimate concern) informs our life's focus - what secondary/preliminary concerns (orange, secondary concerns).
