God is my hero.
He didn't concieve me, but He created the idea and the fact that I was to live. For millions of years he has been the originator. I cannot say He planted the first seed, bur He created temptation, which ended in coition and the new beginning of mankind.
When Eve bit the apple she created evil, but was it not for her there might not have been any human life to follow.
God was, perhaps, not satisfied with the way man came down, but he still saved Noah and his wife, and their sons and wives, to guide the animals and retain a balance.
If He had no further use for the human element after 40 days and nights, He could have fixed that, too.
There is not all good in this world, and there is not all bad, mostly just a lot of misunderstanding. Until God decides to educate the people of the world on any one level, in His own time and way, the world will not do a lot of changing in a right or wrong aspect.
Still, God is in a position to do whatever He wants, whenever He wants.
I do enjoy being myself, and prefer to answer to no-one other than my creator.
I have performed no acts that would require my being owned or worth acquiring in the near future.
When the time comes I will be ready to go to He who is my creator.
I will be ready to go to God.
God is my hero.
