As the apostles were sent or commissioned by Jesus to go to mission, he gave many tips and reminders to them on what to do while in a mission. However, the most significant reminder to think of is the sacrifice they made for the mission. They were given authority and power to cure the sick and cast out demons.
In our class today in Bioethics, our professor shared to us the gift of power as a steward. In the principle of stewardship and creativity, we are to protect, preserve, take care and administer nature or even to our fellow human beings. In the language of bioethics, we are given the power to be responsible since we are the only creature capable of doing those tasks.
In relation to the movie of the 4th sequel of Spiderman, the main character was given a power to take responsibility. When he got tired of being a crime buster, she was indirectly and knowingly not told by her aunt that without spiderman social order is chaotic.
Just like the apostles and spiderman, we need gallant people to make sacrifices in order to bring peace and order to the world. We need gallant people like the apostles, who forgot who they are as human beings so that the word of God may spread to the whole world. We need gallant people, like spiderman, who gave up popularity and fame in order to save the city from criminals. We need gallant people to make sacrifices not for personal intentions but for the common good of all.
