If I say I am Christ centered or Christian or a believer…what am I saying? James 2:19 “You believe that there is one God. Good! Even the demons believe that—and shudder.” I think we might too easily put that into the do more things category but that wasn’t really the point of James or Jesus. Shouldn’t we copy Jesus and center our life on God and just him. Doesn’t the bible really call for a total re-imagining of our life? When I read through the bible it has person after person who finds God, then totally restructures everything around Him. So many times we say we have found Him but simply modify or adjust our behavior or lives. We say “God is in control” but we are lying. God made it clear that we are in control of our decisions. So either our decisions are the ones he is telling us to make and follow or they are ours. To truly have God as the center means His will is the first and only consideration in our every area of our life. It’s an easy target to miss but are we even aiming at it?
