Candles have been used as part of religious ceremonies for centuries, with votive candles taking over for the most part in the type of candle being used. Candles are used as part of different services with some of their uses being merely for light or decoration and some of their uses as being symbolic. Many people light votive candles as part of a prayer ritual and many churches have rows of votive candles in stands to show how many people are praying for specific things.
Does lighting a candle make your prayer more certain to be heard or does it mean you are more sincere with your prayer? Does the act of doing something somehow make the prayer more effective? How many candles do you need to burn to make sure the prayer is heard and how many votive candles do you need to light show the seriousness of your request? Interesting questions and the correct answer is none. That’s right the answer is none. We are told to “Pray without ceasing.”—1 Thessalonians 5:17. How does that square with lighting votive candles. Do we need to light votive candles without ceasing too?
The answer to praying without ceasing is to have an attitude of prayer in our lives that shows we understand that continual conversation with our Father about everything that bothers us, or excites us or intrigues us is how to live our lives. Prayer should not be relegated to once a week on Sunday or only when a candle is lighted. If we are trusting in the lighting of a votive candle or many candles as a sign of our seriousness or commitment to prayer we are missing the point.
The only act that assures our prayers are heard by our Father is a contrite heart and repentance for our sins. Christ taught us a prayer to use that covers everything we need to pray for, let’s use that as our model and not trust in candles or other human actions.
