There is a big money making franchise in super hero movies these days. Characters with incredible physical abilities are able to conquer their foes. Everyone wants to see Evil put in its place. Let's face it, evil exists in all of our lives, often on a daily basis. How do you react to injustice, greed, dishonesty, betrayal, profanity, etc.? Do you see yourself as the hero, the villain, or the victim? Does it even matter?
It definitely matters. Everything we do matters. Sometimes evil creeps into our lives and we don't even recognize it. We can get so comfortable with it, that we don't even bother to change our bad habits. We may not have incredible physical abilities, but we are given incredible graces to succeed in our quest for heaven. Jesus doesn't want us to be a little good, or a little better than most--He wants us to be very good. God is always good.
Let's try to focus on honesty, not only in our words, promises, and actions, but also on how we view ourselves. Let's do our part in conquering Evil. Let's keep this fight honest. Let's keep fighting the good fight.
