Press On

DAY 7 OF 15

Have you ever seen one of those beautiful views filled with mountains and nature for miles? One that’s so amazing you can’t help but think about how breathtaking and massive it is? Mountains are so impressive because they rise above the earth, solid and sturdy. No matter what comes their way, they have the foundation and strength to stay standing. In other words, they’re built to persevere. What a great reminder of the way God builds us too! They’re a picture of the God who made us to find that same strength and sturdiness from Him.

God made the mountains, the skies they reach up to, and the ground beneath them that keeps them standing. And in the same way, God made us with the ability to press on and move forward with the same sturdiness and strength that come from Him. The next time you’re tempted to look back and think you don’t have what it takes to press on into the future, remember the mountains. Remember that you’ve been created to persevere! Today, get outside for a walk. Look for a symbol in God’s creation that can help you remember that God made you to be strong and press on.
