I really enjoy the music of Charlie Hall. Every once in a while we come across a song that simply speaks a great deal about where we are in life and that "thing" that simply makes sense out of the craziness. I deleted the songs from my Playlist with the exception of one...."Center" by Charlie Hall. Are your speakers on?

It wasn't that long ago that I was overwhelmed with the fact that I was fixed on the circumstances of my life. When the time is right, maybe I will talk/write in more detail about the experience. I think it was Beth Moore who said, "A testimony is the outcome or result of a test." So, when the testimony is complete, I will have much to say about God's mercy, grace and power.

During that tough time, I got some help to get me on track. A huge part of the testimony will have something to do with control...the area I probably have changed the most....and probably have a ways to go yet! The other part of the testimony has to do with where I fix my eyes. Fixing our eyes on Christ instead of my circumstances has given me great peace! He holds everything together! Here are the lyrics.

You're the center of the universe
Everything was made in You, Jesus
Breath of every living thing
Everyone was made for You

You hold everything together
You hold everything together

Christ, be the center of our lives
Be the place we fix our eyes
Be the center of our lives

We lift our eyes to heaven
We wrap our lives around your life
We lift our eyes to heaven, to You
