Climb Higher John Dahlem’s goal is to continually reach new heights! At 67 years of age, John was the second-oldest American to summit Mount Everest. He’s also the oldest to complete the Explorers Grand Slam, which is climbing the seven summits – the tallest mountains on each continent – plus pulling a sled to the North and South Poles. So what did John do to celebrate his seventieth birthday? He and his wife returned to Nepal to trek to Everest Base Camp! Seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Colossians 3:1 I Corinthians 9:23 says, “I do it all for the sake of the gospel, that I may share with them in its blessings.” After God captured Paul’s life and heart, the apostle always looked upward toward heavenly goals. Paul’s perspective on life was to become more like Jesus Christ and bring as many people as he could to Heaven. Whatever mountains you may face this year, strive to put heavenly priorities into daily practice. Spend quality time with God. Look for opportunities to share His love with others through your actions and your words. Pray also that America’s leaders would focus on the eternal rather than the temporal in their personal and public decisions. Recommended Reading: Philippians 3:12-21
