Jesus is my Hero

Can you think of anyone more worthy of being called a hero? I can't either. I think Jesus is the best hero ever, and I'll tell you why.

Jesus left the beauty of Heaven to put on flesh and walk this earth. I see this as a manufacturing plant owner coming to the floor of the facility to walk among the workers and see these products he's ultimately responsible for making. When the owner found out there was a flaw in every product that was made, he climbed into the machinery and fixed it so that the flaws were removed - from every product that was ever made or will ever be made. But he died fixing it.

But he came back to life. And when he did, each of the remade products had the flaw removed, but that left a hole in it. He announced that he could fill the hole for free. All anyone had to do was bring the product back to him, and he would fill the hole, which made it possible for the product work the way it was intended.

Jesus did that for us. He climbed into the machinery of man and did what was necessary for our flaws to be forgiven. Sometimes we don't even notice that the emptiness in the place where our flaws used to be needs to be filled by Our Maker.

Our Hero, Jesus, made it possible for us to be brought back to God.

I love that he meets needs that we don't even know about. He's always looking out for us.
