Merry Christmas friends. I hope u all had a good one. Ours was great. The kids are content with the gifts they got even though it was kind of slim this year. The food was great and so was the company. We had 2 friends over for dinner. It was nice. We also had a white Christmas. No distant family... NO drama. Just the 4 of us it was great. I wish you all a very special New year as well. Full of WELLNESS! God bless!!

<span class="ev_code_RED">THE CANDY CANE STORY</span>

Look at the Candy Cane
What do you see?
Stripes that are red
Like the blood shed for me

White is for my Savior
Who's sinless and pure!
"J" is for Jesus My Lord, that's for sure!

Turn it around
And a staff you will see
Jesus my shepherd
Was born for Me!

Many years ago, a candy maker wanted to make a candy at Christmas time
that would serve as a witness to his Christian faith.
He wanted to incorporate several symbols for the birth, ministry
and death of Jesus. He began with a stick of pure white hard candy;
white to symbolize the Virgin Birth and the sinless nature of Jesus;
hard to symbolize the solid rock, the foundation of the Church;
firmness to represent the promise of God.

The candymaker made the candy in the form of a "J"
to represent the name of Jesus, who came to earth as our Savior.
He thought it could also represent the staff of the Good Shepherd,
with which he reached 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 candymaker
stained it with red stripes. He used three small 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 have the
promise of eternal life. Unfortunately, the candy became known
as a candy cane - a meaningless decoration seen at Christmas time.
But the true meaning is still there for those who have
eyes to see and ears to hear.

MERRY CHRISTMAS to everyone at StressCenter.com and A Happy New Year! I pray that you will have Peace, Love and Happiness now and in the years ahead. I pray for you to keep on the road to healing and recovery. God Bless!

Love Beth L.
