| We sang "Happy Birthday" to Jesus with the traditional cake to celebrate. The white frosting represents cleansing our sins. The chocolate cake represents our dark sin. The red candles represent Christ's birth to shed His blood shed for our sins. The evergreen represents eternal life. The angel represents angels proclaiming the birth of Christ. The star represents the 3 wise men following the star to worship baby Jesus. |
