" On the day of the Lord's sacrifice I will punish the officials and the king's sons and all those clad in foreign clothes. "
I am really unfamiliar with Zephaniah (shame on me). I just need to sit down and read it. Really, I just need to sit down and read the Bible. (emphasis on period) In the King James translation, the words "foreign clothes" are translated "strange apparel". I can't think of any other day of the year that we don't don strange apparel than on Halloween. I know a lot of Christians don't celebrate this pagan holiday, and I get it. I'm of the thinking that you can be in the world, but not of the world. In other words, share candy and fun with the precious little trick-or-treaters, but let's not participate or emphasize the ungodly or evil part. I even have friends that send a message of hope with the candy. You could do something like this...
What a "sweet" (pun intended) idea! (photo found on Pinterest) |
A SLICE OF PIZZA! Thanks a lot, Dora the explorer and Benny the Bull! So now, 2 weeks before Halloween, I've got to come up with something creative. Back to Pinterest I go.
There is hope after all! This actually looks doable. (pizza costume, Pinterest) |
and another...
I like the mushrooms and olives on this one (or maybe I'm just hungry) (pizza costume, Pinterest) |
Off to the fabric store I go. It looks like with some felt and some glue (maybe just a simple straight stitch on my sewing machine here and there), voila, pizza costume! Pray for me.
I pray that you have a Thursday that's full of fun!
