1. The Climb to Victory
From Jesus with Love
The rugged climb doesn't
dissuade the determined
mountain climber; he revels
in the challenge. Nothing
can stop him from pressing
on until he reaches his goal.
No adversity can cause him
to turn back. When he looks
at the steep cliffs ahead, he
doesn't focus on the danger
but on the toeholds and
narrow rock ledges that will
take him to the peak. He isn't
held back by the harshness
of his surroundings or the toll
the climb is taking on his
body; he is propelled onward
and upward by the thought
of triumph.
