the world does not revolve around you
"Ironically, when we live as if our personal
story is at the center of our universe, we struggle to find meaning and
significance. But when Christ is at the center and we are pushed to the
periphery, it is then—in that place of seeming obscurity and
insignificance—that we find true worth and value, by giving glory to the
crucified and risen King with whom we can become united through faith...
According to the Bible, we find meaning,
purpose, and fulfillment in not being at the center of the universe. It
is when we discover God at the center of our universe that we find our
proper place."
Trevin Wax, Counterfeit Gospels
