When we reach up, we look to God as our source. We admit that we cannot carry ourselves, that he is our strength and source (Phil. 4:13).
When we reach in, we set our hearts on discipleship, seeking the Lord’s presence in our lives, to be true followers of Jesus Christ (Matt. 16:24).
When we reach out, we seek to fulfill the Lord’s command to make disciples of all nations, to love as He loved us. (Matt. 5:16, 28:19).
