There are some pretty colorful characters sprinkled throughout the pages of Scripture. Have you ever thought about it? Murderers, thieves, prostitutes – not the kind of people you and I are looking to emulate. But something happened in each person’s life that made him/her a hero in spite of a sullied background.
Not Your Ordinary Hero
Who is your hero? Is there someone in your life you look to as a role model? Chances are, your hero probably doesn’t possess super-powers or wear a red cape. People that make me sit up and take notice are those who choose to serve rather than be served. Those who treat others with respect even when they’re treated poorly.
