Searching for Superheroes!

We're going to begin our search for SUPERHEROES  this week in worship.  We don't have to look too far...we've got a few in our midst!  Our Senior High-ers leave this coming week for a superhero mission to Joplin MO, to help in the rebuilding of that community after devastating tornados last spring.  We've all got a little superhero in us...just as we all have a mild-mannered, sometimes weak-kneed, alter-ego that gives us problems.  We wish we could do great things.  We may wish we could have super-intelligence, super-strength, super-powers to handle any circumstance that comes along. The fact is, God's power is all we need.  The good news is that at times we DO do great things, although often hidden from our own view.  The good news also is that even when we don't do great things...God's power is made perfect through our weakness.  Our search for superheroes this month will show us that they are us and we are them...each embodying a God-given blend of strength and weakness to show God's super love, power, justice, and compassion for all.
