As I colored, I thought about my life. What is it that makes my life so worthwhile? Family. Friends. Work. Writing. Hobbies.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
But then as I read through the remainder of the verse, I spent time thinking of what my life might be like without Christ. Oh, I would still have all of the things mentioned above, right? The only difference would be that Jesus wouldn\u2019t be the center of everything that I did. He wouldn\u2019t be the center of each relationship I have.<\/p>\n
