And seeing the multitudes, Jesus went up on a mountain, and when He was seated His disciples came to Him” (Matthew 5:1). The greatest sermon ever preached, the Sermon on the Mount, was given to a handful of men on a mountain. Mountain peaks are never crowded. Why?—Because getting there is hard work and dangerous. If you’re going to climb a mountain, you have to be willing to brave the elements and really work to get to the top. Only pioneers climb mountains—people who want to go beyond what has already been accomplished. Pioneers must have vision to see what no one else can see, faith to believe things no one else believes, initiative to be the first one to try it, and the courage to see it through! Sometimes the challenge God sets before you may seem insurmountable, but there are no alps to men and women of faith. So what are you waiting for? Start climbing! It may be a rugged climb, but the view from the summit is worth it—every rocky step of it! Look forward and up to the heights you’re soon to attain and views you’re soon to thrill to if you keep fighting, climbing, winning, and don’t quit!
