Up: The Adventure of Ordinary Life (John 10:10)

124 words

Carl Fredricksen spent his whole life saving for an adventure with his wife Ellie—to Paradise Falls. She died before they could go. So Carl ties thousands of balloons to his house and flies there alone, honoring his promise. But he discovers something profound: the real adventure was never the destination. Ellie's adventure book, which he thought was empty, is actually full—filled with photos of their ordinary life together. She had written: "Thanks for the adventure. Now go have a new one." Jesus said: "I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full." The full life isn't always the exotic journey; it's often the person sitting next to you. Carl's greatest adventure was the life he thought was just waiting.
