Publisher's Synopsis
And He is before all things, and in Him all things consist.(Colossians 1:17, NKJV, emphasis added)What is the center of all things? Or, who is the center of all things? Who is Jesus Christ? We will answer these questions in this book.St. Patrick had the right idea in his "Breastplate Prayer." Christ was the center of St. Patrick's life. Part of his prayer goes like this: Christ with me, Christ before me, Christ behind me, Christ in me, Christ beneath me, Christ above me, Christ on my right, Christ on my left, Christ when I lie down, Christ when I sit down, Christ when I arise, Christ in the heart of every man who thinks of me, Christ in the mouth of everyone who speaks of me, Christ in every eye that sees me, Christ in every ear that hears me. St. Patrick acknowledges Christ in everything in this prayer. Christ is the center of all things. There is a Latin term "summa summarum" which means highest, greatest, sum of sums, all in all. Jesus Christ is our "summa summarum." He is our "all in all" in the Christian life. Everything we do is for Jesus.This book is about the center of all things, Jesus Christ.
