Day 1 Goodness
Look at the
Candy Cane
What do you
see?
Stripes that
are red
Like the
blood shed for me
White is for
my Savior,
Who's
sinless and pure!
"J"
is for Jesus My Lord, that's for sure!
Turn it
around,
And a staff
you will see.
Jesus my
shepherd
Was born for
Me!
Many years
ago, a candy maker wanted to make a candy at Christmas time,
that would
serve as a witness to his Christian faith.
He wanted to
incorporate several symbols for the birth, ministry,
and death of
Jesus. He began with a stick of pure white hard candy;
white to
symbolize the Virgin Birth and the sinless nature of Jesus;
hard to
symbolize the solid rock, the foundation of the Church;
firmness to
represent the promise of God.
The
candymaker made the candy in the form of a "J"
to represent
the name of Jesus, who came to earth as our Savior.
He thought
it could also represent the staff of the Good Shepherd,
with which
he reached down into the ditches of the world to lift out
the fallen
lambs who, like all sheep, have gone astray.
Thinking
that the candy was somewhat plain, the candymaker,
stained it
with red stripes. He used three small stripes,
to show the
stripes of the scourging Jesus received,
by which we
are healed. The large red stripe was for the
blood shed
by Christ on the cross so that we could have the
promise of
eternal life. Unfortunately, the candy became known,
as a candy
cane - a meaningless decoration seen at Christmas time.
But the true
meaning is still there for those who have,
eyes to see
and ears to hear.
HAPPY THANKSGIVING
if you will be traveling please drive safely, if you get sleepy, stop and walk around your family would like you there not going to your funeral. Please do not drink and drive, your life is at risk along with that innocent person you hit and killed.
I used to make pies with mom on this day, that has sure been hard. If you have your grandparents, parents tell them you love them and its not good bye, it's "I'll see you later, never be too busy to talk to them, go and visit, or take to lunch. When they are gone it will never be the same,
Enjoy the memories being made and cherish them always
To the only wise God be glory forever through Jesus Christ! Amen.
