Let’s Go!

Upstate Meadow © Mark Bordeaux, Jr.

It’s easier to go down a hill than up it but the view is much better at the top. – Henry Ward Beecher

For those who are willing to climb with Him, Christ offers an intimacy that those who choose to remain in the valley will never know. Perhaps you are ready for a challenge. Maybe you are tired of the old scenery. It could be that you have heard stories from other “climbers” and long to climb with Jesus as well. Whatever God is using to cultivate your appetite for the adventure of “climbing” with Him I want to encourage you to get started today.

A documentary called, “Everest – Beyond the Limit” introduces viewers to people who have accepted the challenge to “reach the top.” What many may not realize is that the success of the climb is in large part dependent upon timing. Guides choose the right season, check the weather, and stick to a strict schedule. Your desire to “climb” with Christ came from Him. You must drop what you are doing and follow Him. Your “season” may not come when it is convenient. If we want to be one of Jesus’ “climbing partners” we must be ready to move when He says, “Go!” We cannot stay where we are and consider ourselves followers.

Also, we cannot climb alone. There are times when we need to be alone, but climbing Mt. Everest is not one of them. Neither should we attempt to face the challenges of following Christ without other “climbers.”

Those who are willing to undergo the effort and yes, even the risk, to climb with Christ find a view that changes their entire perspective on life. Remember, the view is worth the climb!

                           “Consecrate yourselves, for tomorrow the Lord will do                             amazing things among you.”   Joshua 3:5

    Hello There. I discovered your blog using msn. That is a really
    neatly written article. I will be sure to bookmark
    it and return to learn more of your useful info.
    Thank you for the post. I will certainly comeback.

    I think that what you wrote was actually very logical.
    However, consider this, suppose you added a little information? I ain’t suggesting your information isn’t good, but what if you added a title
    that grabbed folk’s attention? I mean Let’s Go! | Climbing
    Higher is kinda plain. You might glance at Yahoo’s front page and note
    how they create post headlines to get people to open the links.
    You might try adding a video or a related picture or two to get
    readers excited about everything’ve got to say. In my opinion,
    it might make your posts a little livelier.

    and interesting, and let me tell you, you have hit the nail on the head.
    The problem is something that not enough men and women are speaking intelligently about.
    I am very happy I stumbled across this during my search for something concerning this.

    Hi there just wanted to give you a quick heads up. The words in your post seem to
    be running off the screen in Internet explorer.

    The next time I read a blog, I hope that it doesn’t fail me just as much as this one. I mean, I know it was my choice to read through, however I truly thought you would have something interesting to say. All I hear is a bunch of crying about something you can fix if you weren’t too busy looking for attention.

    I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting my own weblog and was wondering what all is needed to get
    setup? I’m assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny?
    I’m not very web savvy so I’m not 100% sure. Any suggestions or advice would
    be greatly appreciated. Many thanks
