Going to a higher place in life is often met with steep climbs, unforeseen adversity and debilitating struggles that leave one with a sense that a better life is not for them, but for someone else. Over the next few weeks Lift Disability Network is emphasizing a vision to believe in the possibly that our Struggles often work in us an Elevated Life. Take a look at this issue of Lift Magazine

Also, the Breakaway retreat team is deep into the final preparations for another week of life changing moments for families living with disabilities. Our theme for the 2012 Breakaway will focus on “Ascent.” You can find details on page 5 of Lift Magazine or click on the image at the bottom of this e-mail.

Imagine: Lift Magazine Issue 25.2 Front PageLift Magazine: STRUG-GLE 

verb \’stre-gel\strug*gled strug*gling\-g(e-)liŋ\Intransitive verb

1: to make strenuous or violent efforts in the face of difficulties or opposition <struggling with the problem>

2: to proceed with difficulty or with great effort <struggled through the high grass> <struggling to make a living>

 

This issue of Lift Magazine is dedicated to struggles.  As we face the everyday struggle with disability, many of us grow weary.  We thought it would be good to take a moment and show how many of us who write for Lift Magazine have regular ongoing struggles. This is real life. Sometimes we face the mountain and wonder if we will ever come out on top! Or if we do climb to the top, what waits for us on the other side? The great thing about our journey with Christ is that even though there may be a mountain in front of us, He is more than willing to make the climb with us. He knows the best path to take and gives us the right tools to make the climb possible.

As you read these articles, we hope you will find encouragement to keep climbing, knowing that everyone struggles. Enjoy this issue of Lift Magazine by clicking on the Summer 2012 cover image above.
