00:00Let me ask you a question. When you hear the word like Grand Central Station, Central Park,
00:06Central Market, what comes to mind? All of these places are called what? Central. Because they're
00:12hubs, connections where people, journeys, and directions meet. But here's something deeper
00:19to think about. Did you know your life also has a center? It's not a physical place, but a core,
00:28your heart, your driving force. So I'll ask it straight. What is the center of your life?
00:38Hi, this is Brother RJ and welcome to our OBM of the Week. We all have something sitting at the core
00:46of our hearts. For some, it's career. For others, it's relationships or money or approval or even a
00:54dream. Whatever sits in that spot will influence your decisions, emotions, and even your future.
01:04So think about it. If success is your center, failure will crush you. If people's approval
01:12is your center, criticism will paralyze you. If money is your center, loss will terrify you.
01:21So the question isn't whether you have a center or not. The question is, is your center secure?
01:31This reminds me of a scene from the animated movie Rise of the Guardians. There's a conversation
01:37between Santa Claus and Jack Frost. Santa shows a set of Russian nesting dolls, each layer representing
01:46a part of who he is. But at the very center is a tiny figure with a big eyes, symbolizing wonder.
01:55Now, no, you don't need literal big eyes. But here's the point. If we peeled back at the layers of our life,
02:03what would we find at the very center? Ambition? Fear? Dream? Or someone greater?
02:12Here's the truth. Anything temporary makes a shaky center. Jobs change. Market crash. Relationships
02:24shift. Health can falter. When these things are your foundation, your life feels like a roller coaster.
02:35High when things are good. Devastated when they are not.
02:38So before we go deeply, my dear brothers and sisters, let me just remind you, if this message
02:44is speaking to you, don't forget to hit that subscribe or follow or click that bell so you
02:50won't miss any of this video. Or if you're watching on Facebook, Sending Stars will support this
02:56ministry or kindly share this video so that others will be blessed through you. Amen?
03:02Okay, so let's continue. The Bible says in Hebrew chapter 13 verse 8,
03:08Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever. Unlike achievements or relationships,
03:17Jesus never changes. His love doesn't depend on your performance. His presence doesn't fade when your
03:27life gets messy. When He's at the center, you don't have to fear the future. Why?
03:36Because your foundation is eternal. Here's what happens when you let Jesus take His rightful place.
03:45At the center of your life, at the center of your heart. Peace, it replaces anxiety. Circumstances may shake,
03:55but His peace guards your heart. Purpose becomes clear. Decisions flow from God-given mission.
04:03Your work, relationship, and dreams align with something bigger than yourself. Overflow becomes your lifestyle.
04:14Jesus said, I came that they may have life and have it abundantly. With Him at the center, joy and provision overflow.
04:26Placing Jesus at the center doesn't mean quitting your job, okay? Or abandoning your dreams. No, it's not about that.
04:35It means reordering your heart so that everything revolves around Jesus. So here's how you start.
04:45You invite Him at the center of your heart. You invite Him at the center of your life today.
04:55You invite Him in. Through a simple prayer, invite Jesus in. Then second, seek Jesus daily in scripture and prayer.
04:55Align your priorities with His word. Align your priorities with His word. Share your journey so others can find hope.
05:03So I'll allow me to close. Friends, who is the center of your life today?
05:09Is it your job, your finances, relationship?
05:13Because only Jesus can truly complete you and hold you steady through every storm.
05:20If you never invited Him in, why not do it right now?
05:25Just say, Lord Jesus, I choose you to be at the center of my life starting today.
05:33Lead me, guide me, and fill me with your peace and purpose.
05:38Let Him be in the heartbeat of your life and watch everything else fall beautifully into place.
05:48Amen?
05:48Remember this. God is in you.
05:52Kung ti'r shining His light because I know and I pray that you are a blessing.
05:58Amen? God bless. See ya.
