The Meaning of the Candy Cane


Many years ago a candy maker wanted to make a candy that would symbolize the true meaning of Christmas - Jesus.

The hard candy was shaped like a "J" to represent that Jesus is our rock of all ages. The candy was made of white to stand for the pureness of Jesus. The red represents the blood that Jesus shed to save us from our sins.

So the next time you see a candy cane take a minute to remember the real meaning of Christmas.

We didn't write this. The missus found it on a package of candy canes she purchased but in all the hustle & bustle we thought a reminder of the real meaning of the season would make a good holiday note. The picture is from Google Images.

Merry Christmas to all...
