WELCOME BACK! If you missed verses 1-6, no worries! You can easily catch-up (and that STILL includes me!!). And…we are still playing catch-up….I think I am still a week behind on posting.
We've all heard this song growing
up, but did you know each verse of the song also had a Biblical meaning? 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 week I will
post the traditional verse, and its Biblical meaning. Once all 12 verses have
been presented, 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"! (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).
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 seventh day of Christmas
On the seventh day of Christmas
My true love sent to me
Seven
swans a-swimming,
Six geese a-laying,
Five golden rings,
Four calling birds,
Three french hens,
Two turtle doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree.
7th Day: The 'seven swans a-swimming' represent the seven gifts of the Holy Spirit; wisdom, understanding, counsel, fortitude, knowledge, piety and fear of the Lord.
As I mentioned at the beginning of this post, I am STILL behind on my creations, but I have good news! I found scrapbook paper by Graphic 45 themed “The 12 Days of Christmas”….if you are interested in buying or viewing this collection, here is the link
