this time of year, it is easy to be lulled into a comfy and warm
feeling about Halloween. All the candy wrapped in their bright
wrappers seem to be calling your name! Kids and adults alike are
in a joyful frenzy trying to decide what they "will be" for the big
night.
Given the fun filled stimulation to all your natural senses it
is easy to see how anyone can get caught up in the October craziness! After all it's just harmless,sweet tasting fun isn't it?
On the surface, that would seem to be the case but when one
stops to consider the origin of this holiday, it is not harmless at
all.
The Word of God tells us that we as God's children should
be set apart, different, from the rest of the people, those who don't
belong to HIM. As HIS children, we need to stand out . Yes, it
is easy to be tricked by such a seemingly "fun" holiday, but if we
can but turn our eyes from the things that sparkle and shine, and
keep our eyes on the Lord, then we will discover the "real" and
the sweetest treat of all...eternal life!
