Christ still stands at the center of His Church. Jesus is in charge of sustaining the life of His Bride. Unfaithful though she may be, weak though she may become, He is at the center. HE IS THERE! He is present! And He wants to be at the center not only of His church but of each believer’s life as well. Are the spokes of your life firmly attached to the strong Hub of Jesus? Only you can answer that question.

God still speaks through the authority of His Word. God’s word has not lost its potency. It is still a two-edged sword...the only accurate judge of the heart’s motives. It is still timely…still authoritative…still reliable…still alive. How open are you to surgery by the blade of God’s Word? Are you willing to submit to its sharp edge, or are you rushing around looking for second opinions in a frenzy of denial?

Unfortunately, few still fall at the Lord’s feet in praise and humility. In our high-tech world, we’ve lost the art of letter writing. But we’ve lost something else as well. We sing the song of “Sweet Self-Sufficiency” causing us to stand tall with pride when we should be bowing low before the Lord to worship Him.

Only when we come to him, face to the floor and sick of self, do we see ourselves in the right light….as women dependent on God. It’s so much easier to unload our burdens when we bend our backs and fall at His feet. Write out a prayer of submission to the Lord and pray that prayer in a posture of humility and submission.
