Ironman




Everyone wants to be a hero, there is no way around it. I watched Iron man this evening with some pretty neat friends and this hardcore "I can do anything and everything" attitude came while watching it.Its funny when you get that feeling cause you try to find ways to keep it, we try to find ways to keep this sense of power. While trying to write this thing I realized, we try so hard to get all this power whether it be through school, through friends, through choices or even through driving and its funny cause the last place we think to turn to is God. I feel kind of convicted about it. I know it sounds weird, " Ryan's feels like she sinned cause she wanted to be like Iron man" but its so much more than that. Its the fact that knowing my first initial response is to turn to myself or to materialistic things when really its so much easier to turn to him. Whats sad is our whole camp theme for junior high camp was "Action Heros- to be a hero of God" and it took me four months to figure it out.
