The story of the candy cane

Candy Cane History and Legends Legend has it that in 1670, the choirmaster at the Cologne Cathedral in Germany handed out sugar sticks among his young singers to keep them quiet during the long Living Creche ceremony. In honor of the occasion, he had the candies bent into shepherds' crooks. In 1847, a German-Swedish immigrant named August Imgard of Wooster, Ohio, decorated a small blue spruce with paper ornaments and  candy canes . It wasn't until the turn of the century that the red and white stripes and peppermint flavors became the norm. Photo Source: National Confectioners Association In Indiana, a candy maker wanted to make a candy that could be a reminder of Jesus Christ, so he made the Christmas  candy cane . He started off with a stick of pure white hard candy. The white color symbolized the virgin birth and the sinless nature of Jesus, and the hard candy symbolized the solid rock which was the foundation of the church, and firmness of the promises of God.

This is one of my favorite Christmas stories A charming story is told of Pepita, a poor Mexican girl who had no gift to present the Christ Child at Christmas Eve Services. As Pepita walked slowly  to the chapel with her cousin Pedro, her heart was filled with sadness rather than joy. "I am sure, Pepita, that even the most humble gift, if given in love, will be acceptable in His eyes," said Pedro consolingly. Not knowing what else to do, Pepita knelt by the roadside and gathered a handful of common weeds, fashioning them into a small bouquet. Looking at the scraggly bunch of weeds, she felt more saddened and  embarrassed than ever by the humbleness of her offering. She fought  back a tear as she entered the small village chapel. As she approached the altar, she remembered Pedro's kind words: "Even the most humble gift, if given in love, will be acceptable in His eyes. " She felt her spirit lift as she knelt to lay the bouquet at the foot of the nativity scene. Su

Hosea 6:3 3  Let us acknowledge the LORD; let us press on to  acknowledge him. As surely as the sun rises, he will appear; he will come to us like the winter rains, like the spring rains  that water the earth.” 

Prayers please

Our little Willie goat is very sick and is facing emergency surgery in tomorrow if the kidney stone doesnt dissolve today This message was in my inbox this am, very perfect timing Matthew 10:30 But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. As much as I love my wife and daughter, I have never bothered to count the number of hairs on their heads. I don’t have the time to do so and I doubt I will ever want to. Every day, your hair drops. Yet, God knows how many hairs are left on your head. And He also knows how many are growing back! He knows because He bothers to count them again. When it comes to you, He always has time for every little thing about you. So when Jesus said, “But the very hairs of your head are all numbered,” He was not exaggerating. He never exaggerates. He means what He says and He says what He means. So for the Lord to say that the very hairs of your head are all numbered means that He wants you to know that He is very interested in you and has intimate knowledge a
