Growing up I imagined a Cinderella story, but even as a girl, I also wanted Superman strength; power to exert a force that would allow me to defeat enemies, move massive objects and withstand extreme impacts.
I have gained the Cinderella story because I know from my salvation experience, I will be rescued to live forever in a glorious dwelling place with my Savior.
During the wait, I also have a Superman experience. When I was saved, I was given a permanent indwelling Holy Spirit. He helps me defeat troubles and heartache. He works to lift my burdens to give me peace and joy. He helps me move mountains. He is the power to keep me from sin and give me supernatural strength.
My Cinderella promise: John 14:2 NIV “My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you?”
My Superman indwelling: 1 Corinthians 6:19 “Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You, are not your own.”
Hebrews 13:5 NIV “Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, “Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.”
