I Am Selfless

Illustration:
There is being naturally good at something and then there is being supernaturally empowered to do something. Your gifts were given to you for the benefit of others, not the promotion of self. Super heroes such as Superman, Thor, and others are super heroes not because of their powers but because they take action. If someone has powers and didn’t use them, then they would just be some “dude” on a couch.
Leon Bloy wrote “Any Christian who is not a hero is a pig” This gives us some context of how unfortunate it is when someone with God given power chooses to squander those gifts in selfishness or inaction. A super hero utilize their ability in a specific context to help in a s pacific way.
