Each year we gather to celebrate Jesus birth, our family and another year of blessings. Each year brings changes and some sorrow as well. We keep our connections by gathering to spend time together.
The bracelets are made of red and green paracord. Paracord is made up of 7 inner strands wrapped in a hollow sheath. The strands and the sheath give the cord it's strength.
And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken.”. Ecclesiastes 4:12 KJV
The green cord in the bracelet reminds us of spring and the newness of life each year. The sun and warm rain turns our world green again. After a long winter of waiting we love the changes. As I write this on 12/26, the wind whips the trees and presses against our windows. Green reminds us of God's grace and power in our lives.
Red, the color of blood, reminds us of how Jesus came to be with us and gave his blood for each one. It reminds us of the suffering and tragedy in this world.
The knots in the bracelet, called Solomon knots, remind us that we are all connected to life, to God's love and to each other.
