Since most of us have had THREE different incarnations of Spiderman in our lifetime, I'm sure we're all very familiar with the web-slinger's mantra:
Now, most of us won't be bitten by radioactive spiders and get the kind of powers that Peter Parker did, but there is still a truth in this well-quoted phrase that we can each apply in our lives.
Take a look at this similar concept found in Doctrine and Covenants 82:3:
You might not have superpowers,
but you do have much.
You have much to use and much to give.
This time of year is one that begs us to look at our lives and be thankful for what we have, to recognize the joy and blessings that fill our every day and do all we can to give to those who aren't as fortunate.
I recently saw this video on Facebook, made by the Forest Hill Waxhaw Church, and I think it really helps illustrate the point that
we are blessed with so much more than we realize.
With so much, how can we not be giving this holiday season?
How can we not step up to the plate and make this world a little better?
How can we not use our blessings and talents and strengths to bless the lives of others?
It's your turn to be a superhero:
Get out there and give!
