The blooming branch of the almond tree is breath-takingly beautiful. So much so, that the LORD decorated the Menorah with almond blossoms. The oil cups were in the shape of almond blossoms and there are a total of 22 flower cups on the Menorah. The Menorah symbolizes light, growth, unity and the Tree of Life and points to Jesus, the light of the world and the radiance of the glory of God (Heb1:3). Let us be reminded to bask in His radiance today.
