Think Up!
While I was watching the Academy Awards this weekend, there was a definite theme of “up.” Not only in the movie titles but the movie content for this year has, to a great extent, been about overcoming overwhelming obstacles in life. It seems as though the writers, directors and producers understand the challenging times we are in and are encouraging us to “think up” or have the courage and faith to move beyond to a better world.
Look UP!
In the movie UP, the old man wanted to fulfill a lifelong dream and go to the place he and his wife talked about for many years. He had many challenges just to get to what he thought would be his “paradise” and yet, when he got there, he had even more challenges. It reminds me of when we finally get that business that we dreamed about off the ground. Once it’s up and running, we still have every day challenges to deal with and sometimes they are more than we could have even imagined. However, when we look up, we cannot help but see the glory of God and that our faith will carry us through the tough times.
