Have you had your JOY JUICE today? Drink a good serving because you never know when you may be called on to perform a heroic deed!
Many times when we think of a hero we think of people like the firefighters and policeman who risked their lives to help in the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks on New York City. Or the soldiers who tracked down Osama Bin Laden. We may think of “Sully” (Chesley B. Sullenberger) the airplane pilot who safely landed his aircraft on the Hudson River when birds flew into his path and disabled both of the jet’s engines.
One thing’s for sure, we never know what our day might hold. But we have the DIVINE HERO who holds our day! Let’s ask Him to help us be a hero of the FAITH.
A Christian hero is one who follows Jesus in a truly extraordinary way: one whose application of Christian ideals is worthy of admiration and emulation. Our calling may not be to fly an airplane, to rescue people from terrible accidents or to track down terrorists. But we all can strive to follow Jesus' fundamental command, to love our neighbors as ourselves. Doing so consistently will make us JOYful heroes!
As 1 Corinthians 10:31 challenges us: “…whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.”
