Once again Jesus went out beside the lake. A large crowd came to him, and he began to teach them. – Mark 2:13

The Master teacher was charming as large crowds came to Him to learn. An important take away from “Reaching Way Up High” is the need to bring more and more people to the teachings of Jesus. We are all on a journey to our ultimate destination way up high in heaven and this humbles us to pray for and care for the next generation so they can continue what was started.

As a Christian leader, think of ways you are using your skills to benefit the next generation. You may have started a dream but like David, you may not be the one to build it to completion. Someone in the next generation, may need to finish.

The important purpose being fulfilled is sharing about the charming personality of Jesus who died for you and me.  This day with God, reach way up high for this food for the soul and live in gratitude for each day. Take inspiration from the song Gratitude by Brandon Lake. Stretch out your arms for all the charms of Jesus. Throw up your hands and praise again.
