Monday Musings ... heroes

"People need heroes because heroes save or improve life and because heroes are inspiring ... Heroes elevate us emotionally; they heal our psychological ills; they build connections between people; they encourage us to transform ourselves for the better, and they call us to become heroes and help others." April 2014
Scott T. Allison, Ph. D Psychology Today 

As 2019 draws to an end, I'm convinced, our country indeed need heroes. In every home and every community, we need every day people who will put the interests of others above themselves. On a larger scale,  we need real politicians who will put the interest of their communities above the concerns of their political parties. 

It is my prayer that in 2020, we will indeed see women and men who will be  determined and full of courage to be heroes.  We desperately need them to be brave. Indeed, every day, we have the opportunity to do what is right.

Earlier this month, we celebrated the birthday of Jesus. I thought it was worthwhile to list share highlights  of Jana Gordon's article from Belief Net

 Jana Gordon gave us 20 reasons why Jesus in the true Superhero
1. No Mistakes
2. Fearlessness
3. Even-Tempered
4. No Kryptonite
5. Powerful Words
6. Scared Demons
7. No Pride Issues
8. Couldn't Be Outsmarted
9. Didn't Wear A Mask
10.Was Never in Danger
11. Connected with People
12. Both God and Man ( 100% God and 100% Man) 
13. Died to Save His Enemies
14. Never Sinned
15. Controlled the Elements
16. Universal Authority
