A Short Family Devotional: Shining God's Light on Halloween

 Halloween may feel like a night of darkness — but it's a beautiful chance for families to be the light. Here's a short devotional to share before you head out or welcome trick-or-treaters.


📖 Theme: Light in the Darkness

Bible Verse:
"You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden." — Matthew 5:14


🗣️ Devotional Thought:

Tonight, the world might celebrate darkness, but we are called to celebrate light.
When we smile, share kindness, and hand out candy with a blessing, we are showing others a glimpse of God's heart.
Just like a flashlight brightens a dark room, even the smallest act of love shines brightly in a world that needs hope.

Ask your kids:

  • How can we shine God's light tonight?

  • What are some ways we can make someone’s night better?


🙏 Prayer:

"Dear God, thank You for being the true Light in our lives. Help us to share Your love tonight through kindness, smiles, and blessings. Let everything we do shine for You. Amen."


✨ Small Activity:
Before leaving the house, have each family member pick one act of kindness to do during Halloween night!
