A Daily Devotional About the real heroes… John 18: 4 Jesus, knowing
all that was going to happen to him, went out and asked them, "Who is it
you want?" 5 "Jesus of In His darkest hour of earthly life, Jesus went forward with courage. In the hours just before His torture and death, He was afraid. He was terrified. He was so overwhelmed by His trauma His blood came out of His skin. Jesus was not the fearless type of hero with false courage we see in the movies from Hollywood. Instead, Jesus heroically faced down His fear and He courageously did what God wanted Him to do. We must remember, the real heroes of life are not sports figures or movie stars. The real heroes of faith are the people who plod along, who barely make it from one day to the next. The real heroes of faith are the godly mom's and dad's of troubled youngsters who don't give up on loving their child. The real heroes of faith are the godly sick and lame who remain cheerful. The real heroes of faith are the godly crippled persons who contribute to the world while sitting in a wheelchair for life. The real heroes of faith are godly victims of crime who still cheer others on to a better life. The real heroes of faith are the godly women who are rape victims but who go on to raise a loving Christian family. You can be a real hero of faith. You can be a real hero of faith by keeping your faith as you forge ahead each day. The Lord treasures faithfulness in spite of all odds. Christ calls us - in many ways and at many times, to be a real hero of faith. He made the ultimate sacrifice for us. He is calling you today. Do you hear Him? Will you answer? |
