Sunday services

I was struck in the early service by the music and especially the statement, "Jesus, be the center". Now is that a command or a wish? It certainly is not a reality for me or for most. Otherwise it would be "Jesus IS the center".

But that is my hope, our hope. That Jesus will be the center of my life, the greatest thing in my life, the top thing.

I find that I simply allocate God time and often am more excited about my time doing other things, not my time with God. Jesus has done so much for me, I owe him so much. I should be making Jesus the center and allocating time for other things as needed.

I want Jesus to be first in my heart and in my life. It will be someday I think. Then all else will fall away. How much of a shock will it be then?

In the evening SJD is starting a program to encourage discipleship called "Monvee". There are packets for each participant. The thing that seems different is that each person takes one of those character tests and afterwards the results tell you which disciple you are like. That seems unique. But DW says we did that one time for a marriage seminar that we were attending. She says the results said I was like Paul. I wonder what that means. Sadly I cannot even remember it now.
