No Halloween Here...Except at My House, My Way!

We're having a little Pumpkin party tonight with about 10 of the boys'
school friends...
They are scheming what costumes they'll make up or borrow...there is no
Halloween here (thank goodness!)
We're going to eat American STEW and biscuits downstairs and play a few
games. Then we'll go "trick or treating" to the homes of the boys who've
come...
I'm praying today for inspiration to teach them spiritual lessons through
the games. Last year I told them a "spooky story" about the evil prince who
wanted to overthrow the king, and hates all human children, and how the king
threw him and all his soldiers out of his kingdom, but they are still
working against the king trying to mess things up here on earth. You
should've seen their eyes! Finally one little boy says, "I get it! It's
supposed to be the Devil right?!"
