I actually have really good memories of Halloween, from the stash of candy, to the “perfect weather” for trick-or-treating, to the haunted houses we used to have in our basement for the whole neighborhood. My memories are more warm and innocent than they are dark and sinister. But obviously, I am very aware of the Halloween debate that is argued among Christians, and I have my own history with Halloween since I’ve been a born-again believer. One thing I do know for certain is that Jesus wouldn’t be scared of Halloween. So whether we participate in the holiday or not, we can be sure that not even the “gates of hell” shall prevail against the Kingdom of God!

As Jesus and His mother stood watching the wedding take place in Cana, the wine ran out. For a wedding celebration at that time, no wine was a train wreck of a disaster. After a short discourse, Mary tells the servants, “Do whatever He tells you to do.” They did. And the wedding was not only saved but went down as one of the best ones in history. We’re still talking about it! That should be the exact same attitude and approach we should take with the Holy Spirit living within us: “Do whatever He tells you to do.”
