The 12 Days of Christmas Faithbooking Challenge #3
WELCOME BACK! If you missed verse 1 & 2, no
worries! You can easily catch-up.
We've all heard this song growing
up, but I never realized that each verse of the song also had a Biblical
meaning (As a reminder, I found this information online at www.faith-sisters.blogspot.com and immediately knew it was the perfect accompaniment to
the 6 week Christmas Experience study). So, over the next few weeks, we will be
exploring the Biblical meanings of each verse of the song. You can do your craft of choice, journal,
scrapbook….whatever you want to show what the verse and meaning means to you. Each Sunday and Thursday for the next 6 weeks
I will post the traditional verse, and it's Biblical meaning. After the 6 weeks
is over, you should have a beautiful reminder that you can share with your
family and friends as to what the Biblical meanings are for "The 12 Days
of Christmas"!
Although participation in the 12
Days of Christmas Faithbooking Challenge isn’t necessary to be included the
Expressions of Faith small group, I hope you will incorporate it somehow
(crafting, journaling, scrapbooking, etc).
In a sense, it will become your testimonial of faith that will be a
keepsake you will enjoy reflecting on often and sharing with others.
On the third day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
Three French hens,
Two turtle doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree.
The "Three French Hens" stand for Faith, Hope and Love — the three gifts of the Spirit that abide which comes to us via 1 Corinthians 13.
You may also think of them using the Theological Virtues which are Faith, Hope and Charity.
I will post my interpretation as soon as I have it done, until then; enjoy these examples that were provided on www.faith-sisters.blogspot.com
