Christmas Tree Symbolism


The pure green color of the pine tree remains green all year round.  This stands for the everlasting hope of mankind.

All needles point toward heaven, making it a symbol of every one's thoughts turning toward heaven.

The evergreen tree has been the best friend of humans and animals alike--providing shelter, warmth, and beauty since the world was created.

I am thankful for all types of trees, especially this time of year in snow country.  The shapes of the branches are revealed in all their glory as they become laden with snow.  It is beautiful art!  At Christmastime, the trees with lights glowing out from the snow add an extra special effect for this season of celebration of Jesus Christ being sent to the earth to be our Savior.  He is the light to warms our souls.
