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!

Contrary to popular but wrong belief, we do not have a “God on high.” Rather miraculously, we have a God inside! That’s the power and the awe of the Christian life. God has always desired relationship and communion with His people. How much more communion can one have on this side of heaven than to have God living within us! Let us fully embrace this truth, and then let us stay in awe of the One who dwells inside of us as believers!
