Your life has one of two options for a gravitational center around which everything orbits.

Number one, your experience, number two, the character of God.

Those are the only two options you've got for the gravitational

center of your life. If the gravitational center of your life is your

experiences in your feelings and your perspectives, you are in trouble. This is where when times are good you are good when

times are bad you are bad that even your view and perspective of God will just

shift with your circumstances.

Things are good, God is good, things are bad, God is bad.

I am struggling, God has left me, God hates me, I'm not a Christian,

God doesn't forgive me, oh I feel good, okay God loves me God's near to me Jesus care you're going to be an

emotional roller coaster for all of your life. You're going to feel sick all the time and

eventually you're just going to walk away

from Jesus to get off that ride.

Or God will be the center, the gravitational center

of your existence.

What you feel, what you experience, what you consider, what you want, what you desire will be interpreted in light of God's character. It'll be that unchanging gravitational center around

which everything else orbits. Sometimes when we are feeling we need to start thinking about who got it and he reminds

himself, okay, who's God?

So when it feels like life is a snow globe

and it gets shook and everything goes up,

you gotta say, okay, where's God?

Who's God?
