“And between the throne and the four living creatures and among the elders I saw a Lamb standing…”
- Revelation 5:6a
Did you notice where Jesus is? He is in the middle! If you read earlier in the passage, this image portrays a circle with layers. God is on the throne in the center. The next ring has four living creatures, and the next layer has the twenty-four elders. So how is this Lamb between the first and second layer, and between the second and third layer at the same time? Simple: the Lamb is Jesus Christ. He is in the middle, the center, in between everything on heaven… is He in the center of every layer of our life? We have work, families, friends. How can we possibly juggle all of the God-given gifts and responsibilities? By putting Jesus in the center!
