Where Have All The Heroes
Gone?
As I write this article we are mourning the loss of
a great president, Ronald Reagan. Regardless of one's political views all
America and the world acknowledges that this president was a man worthy of
honor and respect. His desire for peace and his leadership in the world
community will surely mark him as a hero.
Although President Reagan was eulogized by leaders
from around the world, perhaps the most powerful testimony to his influence was
the number of young people who stood for hours in long lines to pay respects to
this great man for whom they have no personal memory. He was a hero to people
of all ages and to nations around the world.
The real heroes of the world are not marked by their
ability to stir an audience through profane music or sordid values. They are
the people who stand tall with values and life purposes worth emulating. They
are the people who touch lives and make them better. Their names may not appear
on the headlines of our newspapers. They may not draw big crowds at their
funerals.
The real heroes of our day may be mothers who know
how to soothe broken hearts and give unselfishly of themselves. They may be
Bible class teachers or church leaders, or they may be shut-ins who pray
every day for others. Heroes may include young people who have put God first in
their lives, or elderly people whose eyes are weary and whose bodies move
slowly but whose faith remains strong.
The Bible is filled with heroes of faith. Read
Hebrews 11 and find men and women whose lives made a difference ... men like
Noah, Abraham, Moses, and David. And women like Rahab who risked her own life
to assist God's servants.
We need modem heroes for our youth to look up to as
examples of faith and devotion. They need to see in us a clear sense of purpose
and destiny. They need to see men and women who stand up with courage. They
need to see Jesus living in us.
