After years of exclusively being found in the Kingdom Hearts series of games, fans were shocked and delighted to see Sora finally appear in another title as a playable character in Nintendo’s Super Smash Brothers Ultimate. While Sora’s adventures with Mickey and his friends in the Kingdom Hearts franchise reached a massive audience of appreciative gamers, joining Mario and his pals in their game brought Sora to an entirely new group of players that may not have ever even heard of Kingdom Hearts or considered playing a game in this series before. Growing the Kingdom Hearts family wouldn’t happen by Sora waiting in a comfortable place for others to come to him… he had to join them in their battles and show what being a “Hero of Light” is all about.

Our relationship with the Lord isn’t meant to be limited to our homes, churches, and our private devotional time. The evidence of His presence in our lives should shine in every adventure we take on… from our places of work and school, to sitting in a doctor’s waiting room, to simply standing in line at the grocery store. The talents and gifts the Lord has blessed us with were designed for active participation in the world around us, so let’s look for opportunities to serve others in their battles today and shine His light wherever our journey takes us. This Keyblade was designed to travel.

You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven. Matthew 5:14-16

And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him. Colossians 3:17
