And God has both "raised" UP the Lord, and will also "raise" UP us by his own power.....(I Cor 6:14)
SUN-DAY SCHOOL LESSON: UP, UP AND AWAY
The scripture states: "we must be born again (John 3:1-15)
However, most of the time, we, as adults, miss the point. Even, if ,it is right in front of our eyes. Why? Because, life, sometimes, throws us a curve ball and presents us with hardships. So, we, in effect, kill our "inner child," while losing our will to carry on. So, we stop believing. Stop exploring. Stop learning "new" things. While, becoming afraid to venture out into the "wild, blue yonder..." during the process.
Sadly, some of us, prefer just giving UP, while becoming a "valley of dry bones." (Ezekiel 37:1-14) as life passes us by.
Despite this "unbearable" condition of death and disappointment, a few of us, however,still realize how beautiful life is, and continue to WAKE UP by the GRACE of Most High to FACE the challenges of a new day. Remember, it was the Honorable Marcus Garvey, who said: "UP, UP You Mighty Race: Accomplish What You Will!!!"
This can be SEEN. Especially, for those who have been blessed to have grandchildren. Or, have become parents, aunts, uncles, mentors, teachers, or coaches, who have the pleasure to sit BACK and "witness" the "pure" innocence of children at play, trying to NAVIGATE their way through life's difficult JOURNEY.
And, if we are honest, with ourselves, they end UP teaching us some valuable lessons beyond any book or college professor. (Psalm 8:2).
With that said, I HIGHLY suggest, you WATCH the Disney film UP, which is about the hilarious UPLIFTING story of Carl FrederickSON, a retired balloon "SALESMAN" and part-time DREAMER, who is preparing for his last high-flying adventure to Paradise Fall, while searching for the deeper meaning.
For the scripture states in (1 Corinthians 2:7 )
