I had friend ask me "does it glorify God?" when we were talking about Halloween. That did it for me. My hubby and I decided no more trick or treating. Not to mention we teach or children not to talk to strangers and not to take candy from strangers but then we send them all over knocking on doors asking for candy. Anyway, we did a fun family night of light with about 200 people and it was wonderful! The boys both said they liked it a lot more. Now I have to prayerfully decide about Santa - ugh!<BR/>Such a personal family decision that each one should take before the LORD.<BR/>Oh and CONGRATS about the ministry - that is AWESOME!!<BR/>God bless, <BR/>Kimconnorcolesmomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15884632453329830736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18941653.post-85025575721421620722007-11-05T07:48:00.000-05:002007-11-05T07:48:00.000-05:00Hey girl....sorry for the late comment on this one...Hey girl....sorry for the late comment on this one! You know I have struggled with this one too!! But, I someone was saying on someone's blog that we should be looking at stuff like this as a way to be a "light" in the darkness. I REALLY struggled this year b/c Taylor came home from school and said one of her friends said that Halloween is the "devil's birthday". OH MY. What do you say to that??? <BR/><BR/>So I think you're doing the right thing....seeking Him. He may not say the same thing to everyone about this..although I do believe there is a standard He holds us to, and then there's are personal obedience. Something I'm still trying to "work out".ThreeGirlyGirlshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18083155721729508314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18941653.post-3441006513423361382007-11-05T01:19:00.000-05:002007-11-05T01:19:00.000-05:00Wow.

Satan is just waiting to plant his seeds into their minds. We have to fight him every day.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08710865317308380353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18941653.post-85736618914956182982007-11-02T07:55:00.000-04:002007-11-02T07:55:00.000-04:00I am thrilled at what God is doing with your minis...I am thrilled at what God is doing with your ministry!

He always make it very clear. From t.v. on down to trick or treating. <BR/><BR/>I think it's one of the reasons we are told to put our spiritual armor on each day. <BR/><BR/>Love you girl and praying that God will provide for each need you have! <BR/><BR/>steph.ocean mommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08420605508420197677noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18941653.post-58159249449131174932007-11-01T09:43:00.000-04:002007-11-01T09:43:00.000-04:00Leigh--I admire you for searching the truth on thi...Leigh--I admire you for searching the truth on this topic as it is not easy. I just want to share some scripture that I believe the Lord has shown me on this topic.<BR/><BR/>In Daniel 7, God gives Daniel the interpretation to a dream he had.<BR/>This relates to the false prophet and the anti-christ:<BR/><BR/>Daniel 7:25 [AMP]<BR/>And he shall speak words against the Most High [God] and shall wear out the saints of the Most High and think to change the time [of sacred feasts and holy days] and the law; and the saints shall be given into his hand for a time, two times, and half a time [three and one-half years].<BR/><BR/>Notice that he wants to change the times and the law, which is the Torah--1st 5 books of the OT. <BR/><BR/>In Lev. 23 it lists the appointed times of the Lord or the feasts of the Lord. When you look at those, look at the seasons. What has the enemy try to do with these times? <BR/>Change them with worldly celebrations like you've mentioned-- Easter, Halloween, Christmas.<BR/><BR/>As we seek Christ for the truth, the Spirit of Truth, will reveal His truth to us.<BR/><BR/>Blessings in Christ--Shondahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17704146860641239128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18941653.post-12157861131528678652007-11-01T08:19:00.000-04:002007-11-01T08:19:00.000-04:00GIRL!

I'm one of the "don't do" people and as my kids are getting older it's getting harder and harder to defend especially since someone in front of them reminded me that Christians are "free". Anyway, I totally agree, but at their age freedom and obedience don't go hand in hand. I was feeling that maybe I should just give in, but I saw the same show and GIRL! Killing me, this world is! <BR/><BR/>Ok, enough of that. Anyway, I'm headed to the prayer room over at church and I know what to pray for you!! I love ya girl! God is in the details! He loves that we invite Him in!! <BR/>Waiting to see Him work -<BR/>VValariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12889118194966934464noreply@blogger.com
