Mistletoe-Symbol of God’s Love

December 9, 2023

Mistletoe symbolizes the love we are able to offer to others only because of Christ who “first loves us.”

This year, tell family and friends about the true meaning of mistletoe. 

Be sure to let them know that the corresponding kiss is a symbol of peace, romance and the love of a Heavenly Father who sent His Son, Jesus, to die on the cross, was buried and rose again on the third day, as the payment for all our sins.

God’s love for us is the true meaning of Christmas.

1 John 4:19 We love him, because he first loved us.

Candy Cane-Symbol of the Good Shepherd

December 7, 2023

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.

The candy maker made the candy in the form of a J, which represented the name of Jesus and the staff of the Good Shepherds. 

He then stained it with three stripes which showed the scourging Jesus received, and symbolized the blood shed by Christ on the cross. 

When you break the cane, it reminds us that Jesus’ body was broken for us.

John 10:11 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.

Symbol of Christmas! The Poinsettia

December 5, 2023

One of the beautiful symbols of Christmas is the pointsettia plant that we like to decorate with for the holiday. In Florida and other warm climates the plants grow and bloom in December. 

The shape reminds us of the star that led the wise men to Bethlehem to worship Jesus. 

The red color the precious blood of Jesus, shed for us, the only we can have our sins forgiven. White plants, a symbol of Jesus’ purity. 

The poinsettia, a wonderful reminder of the true meaning of Christmas.

1 John 1:7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.

JESUS Is The Reason For The Season!

December 4, 2023

John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

In all the hustle and bustle of this busy season, sometimes the person we forget is Jesus. 

We think about family and friends. Shopping, presents, parties and feasts. The most important person gets pushed to the background.

It is important to keep Christ in Christmas. Do not neglect Bible reading and prayer. We can get so caught up in festivities that our enemy can slip in and take away our joy and fellowship with Jesus.

At least today we Floridians can feel like Christmas is coming.

Have a blessed day no matter what the weather were you are.

While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease. Genesis 8:22

What Path Are You Taking?

November 27, 2023

Proverbs 3:6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

These are 2 verses in the Bible that if you follow them, God will direct you in the path He has chosen for you.

Sometimes we do not understand where He is leading us but we can trust Him. He will lead us to a life of blessing. Maybe not an easy path but a path of obedience and blessing.
