When I was little, I wanted to be Batman. Now that I’m a little older, I still want to be Batman.

I want to clearly know wrong and right, when to wait, and when to fight. I want to have the conviction that never lets go and the training to handle every situation imaginable.

And I want to use all of that to help people.

I’m not sure that I’m allowed to say that the Lord is like Batman... but the Lord is like Batman, only stronger, smarter, more compassionate, and real.

Because of God’s size, we don’t get to see the action the same way we see Batman’s. We don’t always see God’s every motive and move, and we don’t always get to see every conflict resolved by the time the credits roll.

But we trust that God’s care is true, that we can act as fellow heroes in the mission, and maybe even have some pretty cool team-ups with other faithful heroes along the way. Blam!
