Climb on!!!

My friend just wrote something that said “Life is a climb, but the view is great.” Wow!! A whole bunch of thoughts about this quote popped in my head so I am going to share them with you.

When I read this quote I pictured myself climbing a mountain. (I have climbed a mountain but not really climbed it, if you know what I mean. I would like to one day though.) Okay back to what I was saying. It can be hard to climb there are loose rocks, small animals that slither or crawl, and big rocks. However some parts of the climb might be easy. Just like life you have hard times and good times. But every thing you go through good or bad there is always something good at the end. Just like climbing the mountain it takes sweat, blood, and strength to climb that mountain. You might get hurt, you might slip, but when you reach that top it is the most beautiful view you will ever see.

It reminds me of Romans 8:28-And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose. Well that’s US!!

Trials will come it even says that in John 16:33. But God has overcome the world!! Don’t focus on the situation as a downer or you’re a failure, look at it as a time to grow, learn from the bad times. God is with you the whole way!! And the view will be great when its all over!!
