"J is for Jesus, God's Son sent to earth.
And Christmas is when we remember his birth.
It looks like a staff that the shepherds used.
They were the first to hear the Good News.
He (Jesus!) died on the cross, his blood was shed.
That's why the stripes are bold and red.
The white on the candy is there to show
that when we're forgiven, we're white as the snow.
Jesus was born to save us from sin,
to make us holy and clean within."

Thank you Jesus for all you have done for us - we have received above that which we could even ask or think. He came as a baby and became our KING! lv to u, nwmom
