[dailyfoodforthought] The 7 Ups of Life
The 7 Ups of Life
7 Ups of Life is not the carbonized lemon-lime soft drink, but rather a perspective on life. As we enter this New Year remember "Being Up" isn't difficult, but it does require a conscious effort on our part. So here are the 7 Ups.
1. Wake-Up! Decide to have a good day and wake up to the realization that we have been given the gift of another day.
2. Dress -Up! The best way to dress up is to put on a smile. A smile is an inexpensive way to improve your looks.
3. Shut-Up! Say nice things and learn to listen. God gave us two years and one mouth, so he must have meant for us to do twice as much listening as talking.
4. Stand-up! for what you believe in. Stand up for something or you will fall for anything.
5. Look-Up! To the Lord, "for our every need, or every problem".
6. Reach-Up! For something higher. When everything else fails us, we know we can depend on Him! .And finally,
7. Lift-Up! Our prayers to him, not just all of our burdens and cares, but also our gratitude for what he has done and will do for us.
