My Comfort Cross Review & Giveaway(CLOSED)

I had the pleasure to review a Comfort Cross. I love how beautiful the olive wood is. The craftsmanship is so perfect as well. It is so smooth and is small enough to fit in your pocket. It comes in a velvet bag with a card. It is ready to give as a gift or enjoy for yourself. This retails for $8.00 including shipping. They also have church and fundraising packets.

The Comfort Cross StoryPurchasing comfort crosses and other handicrafts made by local Christians in Bethlehem who are paid a fair price for their work both provides yourself with a beautiful natural reminded of Jesus Christ but also supports the presence of Christians in the land of Christ.

The Olive Tree

The olive tree is probably the most significant plant mentioned in both the New and Old Testament.  First mentioned in Genesis as the leaf brought by the dove to comfort Noah it was the tree Jesus prayer under before the last supper.  The Olive tree also provided food, lamp oil, anointing oil and building material during ancient times.

The olive tree is an evergreen which can grow for thousands of years.  The tree admired by Hosea whose leaves have been a sign of abundance; glory and peace are still used to crown victors in the Olympic Games.  The oil from the fruit used to anoint the sick.  The olive trees of Jerusalem are pruned to remove the hard wood and open the tree so new growth can provide a bountiful cop of olives the next year.  This hard and beautiful timber is used by local craftsmen for carving.

Benefits of the Comfort Cross

The Comfort Cross is made from genuine olive wood in Bethlehem, the Holy Land.  Designed specifically to fit within the contours of your hand they are perfect to hold during prayer or meditation.  Comfort Crosses make a wonderful gift to say "thanks" or "I care" to your pastors, priests, bible study groups, prayer groups or any family member or friend in need of a little boost in faith.

Two lucky followers will be winning one of these!
