be the reason that I live

Jesus, be the center
Be my source, be my light, Jesus

Jesus, be the center
Be my hope, be my song, Jesus

Jesus, be the fire in my heart
Be the wind in these sails
Be the reason that I live

Jesus, be my vision
Be my path, Be my guide.

--Be the Center by Michael Frye

I go to a weekly Bible study on Tuesday nights. We always begin our study by singing a few songs. Tonite, Kyle (the awesome worship leader from Heartland) played the guitar and led us in singing the song above. Something about it really struck me. I want to make this song a prayer for my life. Something I've learned a lot about in the past few months is that what I need is Jesus at the center of my life. He is my rock, my strength, my hope. The rest of life will fall exactly into the right place after this. The trick though, is being patient. It's a virtue, ya know. A very hard to learn virtue.
