A Joyful Up Look!

My daughter Vikki, with her free spirit, discovered that once you start to climb a mountain it's so steep and tough your only option is to keep your sights on finishing and your mind on the rocks and boulders up ahead. You have to keep looking forward and not back, and you have to pray every step of the way that you will make it.

The road to glory is difficult with its rocks and boulders to strain and struggle. Things aren't always as easy as we would like. SUrprises and pitfalls wait for us along the road of life. We're going to swear and sway, we're going to wonder why things are the way they are.

But every road has an end; every mountain has its peak. If we can just hold on and keep climbing, knowing that God is aware of how we're straining, he will bring us up and over the mountains. It's consoling to know God is in control of every part of our journey to glory; even over the steep mountains.
