Is God the center of my life?

So today I was on the way to work and I thought to myself, "Is God the center of my life?" I guess the question to ask before this question is, "Should God be the center of my life?" Which obviously I would reply with a yes! Then I have to ask myself, "Why should he be the center of my life"? Well that one gets a little tougher. To me, God should be the center of our life because he is our rock, our solid ground (Psalm 18:2). Everything in this life is unstable (family, friends, money, economy, the Texans...yes sadly even them). Even sometimes we cannot even rely on ourselves. If God was not the center of our lives, something else would take His place. Something unstable. One would not build a house on an unstable foundation, so why would we not follow the same steps in our lives? Now we get back to the main question. "Is God the center of my life?" I would love to reply yes to this question, but if I did, I think I would be lying to myself. There are many things in life that try to pull you away from the Lord. Some time you resist the temptations, and other times you feel like you're drifting away. You get to a point and start to think, "Why am I feeling so crappy?" When this happens to me, it's because I have succumb to the world and lost sight of my Savior, who if I give my life to, gives me life.(John 10:10) If I am not living with the Lord, then I am not living life. It is that simple. But no matter how far I stray, I am always pulled back, for He will never leave us.(Hebrews 13:5). My prayer is that I will be able to follow my Lord, my Savior, my King of kings. Knowing he gives me life, and without him, I am nothing.

Family

So here I sit...idly at the computer hoping for some surge of ideas to rush into my brain, stimulating the cells, in order to write this blog, post, article, jumble of words, or whatever you may call it to change the lives of millions! Sadly, as the time slowly ticks away on my watch, I do not foresee this in my future.

What I do see though, is the start of something new. A family, as some would call it. One wife and one dog, who is not exactly at the house yet, and a baby that is on the way... in about 4 or 5 years. It is weird to say it, hear it and even hard to see it. But there is something new, a family.
