Heroism

If it is true that we are the Body of Christ, then our hands should be doing what His would do if He were on earth. Our feet should be walking into the places His would have taken Him if He were still walking this globe. Our eyes should be seeing what His would be seeing, our ears hearing the same Spirit He heeded, and our hearts beating with the same anguish that burdened His Almighty heart. As the Body of Christ, we are to behave on this earth as He did when He strode upon it. We should gravitate towards the weak ones just as He was magnetically inclined towards their needs. Just as He lived as a Savior, a Rescuer, and a Deliverer, so we live as little christs-little saviors, little rescuers, and little deliverers. We are not God, but we are enabled by the grace of God to live just as He did. And He was a hero. All God's giants have been weak men, who did great things for God because they believed that God would be with them. - Hudson Taylor
