Scary Without Christ

With October in full swing, we are now seeing some of the highlights of the season.  Some of the mainstays that come into mind in October are pumpkin spice latte’s, football, playoff baseball, the leaves changing colors, and so much more.

Of all the things that October brings, most people thoughts immediately go to the end of the month and the celebration of Halloween.  Yards are starting to be decorated with spooky decorations.  Many people love the scary costumes, movies, and so forth.  Sometimes it can be fun to be scared, but something truly scary has nothing to do with Halloween.

You see, it would truly be scary for us all if we didn’t have Jesus as our Lord and Savior.  If not for the perfect life, sacrificial death, and victorious resurrection of Jesus Christ we would be dead in our sins – a scary thought indeed.  If it weren’t for Jesus we would have no peace or comfort in the face of death.  There is nothing scarier than the thought of what we would face without Christ with us!

Thanks be to God – for we have Christ as our Lord and Savior!  And with Jesus as our Lord and Savior we have nothing to fear.  Nothing can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus.  No matter what you face, always remember that you face it with your Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ – therefore you have nothing to fear…not even on Halloween.
