You Were Made to Rise

Did you know that our bodies are made up of approximately 75% water? I know, right?! It is hard to believe that the water in my Nalgene is the same substance that makes up 75% of my being. Mind blown. 

Water is consistently ascending and descending, moving from sky to earth and back again. Today, we refer to this process as The Water Cycle. Circa 900 B.C., Solomon even references this cyclical phenomena in Ecclesiastes 1:7. 

The Water Cycle consists of 4 stages: Evaporation, Condensation, Precipitation, and Collection. This intricate cycle is absolutely vital to the existence of all life. In fact, it is safe to conclude that the same water has been on the earth for over thousands of years. Mind blown again.

So what does this have to do with us? 

Simply put, we were not created to remain stagnant. We were made to move, to rise. And while precipitation is inevitable (in fact, it is necessary), so is the rising that will follow. 

If the water filling our bodies and covering our earth is meant to rise, then so are we. Keep progressing and never give up!
