Nothing But Jesus Sample

An object that orbits another is called a satellite. The shape of an orbit is never perfectly circular—it’s always elliptical, like an oval. Sometimes the orbiting object, the satellite, is closer to its “sun,” and other times it is farther away. But it never stops orbiting, no matter how far the ellipsis takes it. It reminds me of how Bono, U2’s iconic singer/songwriter, responded to a Rolling Stone writer’s question about his favorite music: “The music that really turns me on is either running toward God or away from God. Both recognize the pivot, that God is at the center of the jaunt.” Jesus at the center means that our elliptical orbit in life might feel sometimes-near and sometimes-far from him, but everything in our life is nevertheless influenced by his gravitational pull.
