Each Step I Take

When I was a child we used to sing a Sunday School chorus -

We Are Climbing Jacob's Ladder
We Are Climbing Jacob's Ladder
We Are Climbing Jacob's Ladder
Soldiers of the cross

Every rung goes higher, higher
Every rung goes higher, higher
Every rung goes higher, higher
Soldiers of the cross

When you choose to begin climbing, you have a goal in mind. You cannot reach that goal without moving upward. The walk of the Christian always leads upward even when the road get rough the ladder wobbles a lot.



2 Peter 1:5-8
5 For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; 6 and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; 7 and to godliness, mutual affection; and to mutual affection, love. 8 For if you possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. 9 But whoever does not have them is nearsighted and blind, forgetting that they have been cleansed from their past sins.
