One is an oxymoron. Where on Earth are you going to find three? <g>

> The Candy Maker's Witness
>
> A candy maker in Indiana wanted to make a candy that would be a witness,
> so he made the Christmas Candy Cane.  He incorporated several symbols for
> the birth, ministry, and death of Jesus Christ.  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 Saviour.  It could also
> represent the staff of the Good Shepherd with which He reaches down into
> the ditches 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 red stripes.  He used three small stripes for the
> blood shed by Christ on the cross, so that we could have the promise of
> eternal life.
>
> Unfortunately, the candy became known as the Candy Cane - a meaningless
> decoration seen at Christmas time.  But meaning is still there for all
> those who "have eyes to see and ears to hear."  We pray this symbol will
> again be used to witness to the wonder of Jesus and His great love that
> came down at Christmas.
