Recently, I went to see the movie Wonder Woman and must admit I thoroughly enjoyed it. I found myself really getting into the fight scenes (literally throwing punches in the air). As I thought about it later, I wondered why I enjoyed the fight scenes so much. I realized it wasn’t so much about the fighting as it was seeing the “bad guys” being defeated. Perhaps I reacted as I did because for me the “bad guy” isn’t defeated often enough. In the real world, sometimes, the “bad guy” gets away, the situation doesn’t get resolved, or the problem isn’t fixed. In the real world, good people get hurt, suffer, and don’t always get what they deserve. It is in the real world that I must trust a God I cannot see and sometimes still wonder about. It is not always easy to do. Yet, when I do, I discover more of the strength God offers as I choose to live by faith. I discover that God’s Spirit is enough to sustain, comfort, and empower me even when it looks like the “bad guys” in my life are winning. I discover yet again that God’s love is more than enough. I enjoyed watching Wonder Woman, it was entertaining. But, ultimately, the battle (the fight) is not mine (or Wonder Woman’s), it’s the Lord’s.
