Day 4: The Story Of The Candy CaneMany years ago, a candy maker in Indiana wanted to make a candy that would help people remember the true meaning of Christmas. He began with a stick of pure white, hard candy: white to symbolize the Virgin Birth and the sinless nature of Jesus, and hard to symbolize the Solid Rock, the foundation of the church, and firmness of the promises of God.The candy maker made the candy in the form of a “J” to represent the precious name of Jesus, who came to earth as our Savior. It also represents the Good Shepherd’s staff with which He reaches down into the ditches of the world to lift out the fallen lambs that have gone astray. Lastly, the candy maker added red stripes to symbolize the blood Jesus shed so that each of us can repent and return to live with Him some day. For those who have eyes to see and ears to hear, the candy cane still stands as a witness of the true meaning of Christmas.  |
