Never give up; you never know until you try.
Many people observe Halloween activities on October 31. Some enjoy dressing up and going to parties and maybe pigging out on the candy they collect while "trick or treating." Still others, unfortunately, enjoy vandalizing property or terrorizing innocent people.
We Christians believe that Satan enjoys terrorizing people. He hates God, so he obviously hates God's people and tries to hurt us any way he can. To that end, he seems to love using scare tactics. He's the master of tricks. It's easy to fall victim to fear and worry, but God wants us to be free of worry, doubt, fear, and all Satan's other goodies in his little treat bag.
Happy Halloween, everyone, and don't let Satan lie to you and trick you into worrying. God's "treats" of contentment, security, provision, and love are there for the taking.
Amen!
