Iron Man 2 My Take……..

Did you see Iron Man 2 this weekend? If you haven’t, let me tell you it’s worth going to see. Great Action graphics, the acting is actually good and I truly enjoyed the story line. Robert Downy Jr. made me laugh throughout the entire movie.

One of the things I enjoyed most was Tony Stark trying to do it all on his own. Let’s just say he takes having an ego to a whole-nutha-level. To call him a narcissist is the understatement of the year.  He is so consumed with himself that he doesn’t believe anyone can help him with his little problem; because he’s Iron Man, he’s got that fancy suit.

I started to think how often that happens to us. How often do we isolate ourselves from others? What is our problem that we think we can solve ourselves? What is our shiny suit that we think makes us Iron Man?  Is it a job title, a college degree, how long we’ve been married or raising our kids or even how much bible we have memorized?

God didn’t design us to do it on our own. He created us to be in a relationship.  So ask yourself, what’s your shiny suit that make you think you can do it all on your own?
