Skillet- Hero

Do you have a hero? Someone you look up to and are inspired by? What is it about them that makes them worthy of being followed? Maybe it's because they do incredible athletic feats, or because they have that perfect voice, or maybe because they wear the right clothes and look 'worthy'. Maybe it's because they're there for us in a time of need. Regardless of why we consider them our heroes, we all need them to get through sometimes.

But who is our true hero? When there was nothing that we could possibly do to save ourselves from the judgment of death, Jesus stepped down from Heaven and took our place. He's the one that wasn't afraid to give His life for us, and He saved us when we couldn't do it on our own.

And the great thing is that Jesus didn't just do that one Heroic act. He saves us from an empty and unfulfilling life every day. When we're on the edge, broken and beaten down, He's always there to save us. He's the hero that lives within us.
