The 7-Ups Of Life

Wake up...Decide to have a good day. "This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it." Psalm 118:24

Dress up...The best way to dress up is to put on a smile. A smile is an inexpensive way to improve your looks. "....for the LORD seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart." I Samuel 16:7

Shut up...Say nice things and learn to listen. God gave us two ears and one mouth, so He must have meant for us to do twice as much listening as talking. "He that keepeth his mouth keepeth his life; but he that openeth wide his lips shall have destruction." Proverbs 13:3 & "He that goeth about as a talebearer revealeth secrets: therefore meddle not with him that flattereth with his lips." Proverbs 20:19

Stand up...For what you believe in. Stand for something, or you will fall for anything. "And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap if we faint not. As we therefore have opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith." Galations: 6:9-10

Look up...To the Lord. "I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me." Philippians: 4:13

Reach up...For something higher. "I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus." Philippians 3:14

Lift up...Your prayers. "Be careful for nothing: but in everything by prayer and supplications with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God." Philippians 4:6"
