A Candy Makers Witness
a candy maker in Indiana wanted to make a candy that would be a winess of his faith, so he made the Christmas Candy Cane. he incorporated several symbols of the birht, ministry, and death of Jesus Christ. He began with a stick of pure white hard candy. white to symbolize the Virgin Birth and sinless nature of Jesus; and hard to symbolize the Solid Rock, the foundation of the Church, and the firmness of the promises of God. The candy maker made the candy in the form of a "J" to represent the precious name of Jesue, who came to earth as the Savior of all mankind. it could aslo represent the staff of the Good Shepherd with which He reaches down into the dirches of the world to lift out the fallen lambs, who, like all sheep, have gone astray. Thinking that the candy was somewhat plain, the candy maker stained it with several small red stripes representing the stripes Jesus recieved when He was beaten before His Crucifixion; the stripes that the Bible says we are healed by. the large red stripe is for the blood shed by Christ on the cross so that mankind would have the promise of eternal life. As time passed, the candy became known simply as a candy cane. it is now a standard decoration we see at Christmas time, but not nearly carrying the meaning that was orignally intended. but the meaning is still there to those who have "eyes to see". perhaps this story of the origin of the candy cane will help you to witness the wonder of God's Gift at this blessed time of the year
