Poem
Jesus is My Superhero! Ever since I was a little kid he was there He would remove all of the monsters beneath my bed And help me count the stars from my bedroom window Ever since I could remember he was leading me on the straight and narrow Keeping my head on straight too One day I contemplated killing a frog and he was there to convict me He said to me, “No! That frog is my friend! How would you feel if I did that to you?” He was right again, always keeping me on the straight and narrow He was even with me during years of child abuse Comforting me as I was stowed away in a cold musty basement He comforted me with an incredible imagination I never had a single nightmare As I slept in that cold dark room with no furniture No, not a single nightmare! He would bring me dreams of flying and killing dinosaurs all through the night He was my Lord and Savior and he knew exactly what to do for me He entertained me in so many ways Then it was time to go to kindergarten and mom couldn’t hide me any longer It was out of the basement and into a single room with a single mattress The entire world was now beginning to open up to me Here I was now 5 years old and rescued by my grandmother She was then allowed to pick me up every Sunday for Sunday school Oh she was my knight in shining armor sent by Jesus She brought me to a place where I received unconditional love She became the most important person in my life from that point on She always pointed me back to my super hero—that was JESUS! Now that I am older and have three kids of my own My superhero is still right beside me Guiding, instructing, and entertaining my creativity He is all I have ever needed all along He is my heart’s song! He is my Jesus! So if you also want a super hero in your life allow me to give you some great advice Call upon the name of Jesus and he will see you through anything He is the reason for my hope He is the reason for my existence He is the jump in my rope He is my Lord! Written for Super Hero Contest My personal testimony of my super hero Nothing is impossible for my God! Gwendolen Rix 8-7-14
