"A New Hero."
When I was a boy, I used to dream of being like my favorite comic book hero. With super powers, I knew I'd be unstoppable. No one could pick on me, no one could tell me what to do, and everybody would love me. As I grew older, I grew sad to realize that no superhero life lay in my future.
Superheroes were just myths...
Then, one day, I found a new kind of hero. A friend of mine gave me a New Testament and asked me to read it. I was swept into a world where sin and evil came to an end, where good really did win, and where love was the strongest power of all. And the best thing was, everyone who believed could be a hero, too.
We need to choose our heroes carefully. Only one hero is worthy of our praise and allegiance, and that is Jesus Christ. Jesus will save us from our enemies, and He will set all things right. Follow Him, and He will grant you a power beyond belief.
I will call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from mine enemies.
Psalm 18:3
