Black Cats Aren't Scary

Halloween is a holiday that many people view as harmless fun. But Boris learns that it also promotes prejudice and hatred of black cats. Determined to do something about it, God tells him the secret to defeating hate. A perfect Christian story for Halloween.


"But I tell you who hear me: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. Do to others as you would have them do to you." -- Luke 6:27-28, 31

He bowed is head to pray, “God, why do people hate black cats? You created me. Why would anyone think I was evil or bad luck?”

 

Boris sat there quietly listening for God’s voice. Several minutes passed and God didn’t answer.

 

“God, are you there?” asked Boris.

 

There was nothing but silence.

 

Boris got a little nervous, and then, a little scared, “God, I know you’re listening. Aren’t you?”

 

 

 

And God said, “You know I am always listening.”

 

“Please forgive me. I got a little concerned when I didn’t hear from you,” said Boris.

 

“You were scared weren’t you?” asked God.

 

“Yes,” said Boris.

 

“Do you think people who don’t know me are very brave?” asked God.

 

“They’re probably scared of everything,” said Boris.

 

“For people that don’t know that I love them, the world is a very scary place,” said God. “Wouldn’t you agree?”

 

“I sure would,” said Boris. “If people knew how much you love them they would never hate anyone or be afraid of anything.”

 

 

 

Boris thought for a moment, “How can I change what people think about me?”

 

“Boris, people blame me for all kinds of bad stuff. And they say very mean things about me too,” explained God.

 

“What do you do?” asked Boris.  

 

“I just love them,” said God.

 

“And if they don’t stop?” asked Boris.

 

“I just keep on loving them,” said God. “There’s no better way to change what people think about you than to love them, even when they don’t love you back.”

 

“Thanks. I know exactly what I’m going to do from now on,” said Boris

 

 

 

 

The next day Boris ran down to the park to play. The mother and the little boy from downtown were there. Boris cautiously approached the boy and rubbed against his leg.

 

“Bobby, what did I tell you about black cats!” shouted his mother.

 

“Its ok Mommy,” said Bobby petting Boris. “He’s a sweet kitty.”

 

Bobby’s mother came over and rubbed Boris’ neck.

 

“I guess black cats aren’t that scary after all,” said the mother.

 

And Boris agreed.

 

Black cats aren’t scary.
