Candy Cane Sled
The white symbolizes the Virgin Birth (Is. 7:14; Luke 1:26-35) and the sinless nature of Jesus (1 John 3:5)
The hardness of the candy symbolizes the Solid Rock (1 Cor. 10:4), the
foundation of the Church (Mt. 16:18), and the firmness of the promises
of God (Ps. 18:30-32).
The candy maker made the candy into the form of a ''J'' to represent the
precious name of Jesus, who came to earth as our Savior (1 John
3:16-17), and a symbol to represent the staff of the Good Shepherd (John
10:14).
Thinking that the candy was somewhat plain, the candy maker decided to
stain it with red stripes, representing the stripes of the scourging
Jesus received prior to his crucifixion (Mark 15:15-20) for our healing
(Is. 53:5).
The large red stripe represents the shedding of His blood on the cross for our salvation (Rom. 5:9: Eph. 1:7).
