"Jesus, My Hero"

"You're my hero...You're the only one who is strong enough.
You're my hero...You always pick up before I self-destruct."
~Steffany Gretzinger

Beloved, There are some situations that ONLY Jesus being Jesus will be strong enough to grab your hand and pull you through.

You can't save yourself and you certainly can't be an hero to yourself....Any more than Peter could save himself, that time he had a panic attack on the water.

He might have felt like a Superhero for a few minutes on the water, when he walked and looked  like Jesus....But he would soon discover, he was not Jesus and that he needed "the one and only" Jesus, desperately.

Peter was about to self-destruct and find himself  "head over hills" in some water he couldn't swim in.
So from the pit of his soul, he cried out, "LORD, Save Me!!!"

You see, when the situation is really real and you feel overwhelmed.. You have no time for pride, for ego, you have no time to stop and see whose watching. INSTEAD, something inside of you knows that even if I must risk being humiliated, so be it.

"LORD, Save Me!!!"  Now, the process must have seemed  like forever to Peter (a few seconds can seem like an eternity, when you're scared)...But the bible says: Immediately, Jesus stretched out his hand and saved Peter.

Jesus was able to (strong enough to) grab Peter's hand and pull him through.
Even though,  Peter's faith had been servely shaken, still Jesus was merciful just as he is with us.
Because he's Jesus, My Hero.

Matt 14:25-32 NKJ

Focus Points:

You cannot save you.

When people are not strong enough...Jesus is.

Your faith will be shaken sometimes...Don't panic.

His strength is made perfect in your weakness.
2 Corin 12:9 NKJ

Therefore, Don't idolize people...Jesus is your hero.

Until Next Sunday.
