Halloween is a Sweet Time to Share the Gospel
This time of year is one of my favorites, because it is the beginning of gatherings filled with family and friends. I am an extrovert, so forgive me if the thought of back-to-back holiday festivities conjures more dread than glee in your heart.
Speaking of dread. The mention of Halloween in Christian circles elicits a varied response, and it is often a subject of hot debate.

God's Algorithm Prevails
Friend, when we lay anything down at the feet of Jesus, He will take it and multiply it however He sees fit in His time. Maybe we won't see the fruition of our multiplication on this side of heaven, but when we work for the audience of One, He makes sure the one who needs it most gets it.

this mindset for too long is unhealthy and unproductive. We must do the hard work of
adjusting and moving forward as we grieve the passing of a good season while holding on to the hope that the best is yet to come.

Bold Obedience
The only problem with including the Lord in the decision-making process is when He doesn't choose the preplanned decision we already assumed would be the best way. The pesky white-knuckle control issue many of us deal with can rear its ugly head. It also provides the perfect storm for doubt to have a field day in our brains.
