The Best Thing That's Ever Been Mine

             A hero as it as written in the dictionary is one noted for courage and greatness. Most people consider their parents as their hero but for me, God is my hero. Why? He chose to save us and gave His only son Jesus. As I go deeper in answering the question, I realized that sacrificing His own life for us isn’t just the reason why God is my hero but because He had touched people’s life and helped them to become a better person.

                God taught me to be fearless and stay strong in times of worst. I remembered one time when I got mumps, the feeling of too much pain that made me felt that little by little I was dying. I can’t do anything but to pray. I was waiting for Him to answer but it’s not that easy. Everyday and night I asked for His forgiveness. There was a time that I lose hope and I even questioned God. I asked “There are too many people here in the world yet why God does chose me to experience this hardship?” Then I realized what my friend had said that “Everything happens for a reason”. Maybe this was just a challenge for me. God wants to know how strong my faith to Him was and He wanted to open up my heart and soul so that He can enter and help me become a better person. I woke up feeling that God had really touched my heart so deep. He healed me because He knew that no matter what challenge he brings, still I won’t give up. For I knew that He is my strength and my hero. Before I end this up, remember that anyone could be a hero as long as he or she had touched anyone’s heart and had helped him or her in pursuing to live life successfully.
