No Ordinary Hero


We need a hero.

Not just an ordinary hero.

We are fighting everyday just to get our way.

But we are losing our own battles.

We need a hero.

We need someone with a desire to lead like Hitler and Stalin.

We need someone with the right intentions like Martin Luther King Jr. and John F. Kennedy.

We need someone with the power to save like Superman and Captain America.

We need a hero.

We need someone to sweep us off our feet.

We need someone to lift us off the cold, hard ground.

We need a hero.

But what we don't realize is our hero already came.

He was born of a virgin 2000 years ago.

He died for our sins and then rose from the grave 3 days later.

He was crucified and then He defeated the grave.

And He did it all out of His love for us.

Jesus Christ is no ordinary hero.
