Origin of Christmas Candy Cane...

Do you know why there are candy canes sold & use as Christmas decoration? 

It's because of Jesus... many years ago a candy maker make it as a witness to his faith.The white symbolized the virgin birth and the sinless life of Jesus.  He made the candy hard to symbolize that Jesus is the solid rock.

The candy in the form of a "J" to represent... the name of Jesus,
He added red 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 be forgiven and have the promise of eternal life. amazing isn't it? 

let's celebrate a meaningful Christmas with a Purpose... ♥ ♥
