When I first started writing this book, all the way up to this chapter, I did not have a title for the book. But the word, "axis" kept jumping out at me and why I titled this book the way I did. It's all about finding our center. As a figure skater, we do a spin called a "scratch spin." This is where we need to be centered and one of our legs is eventually wrapped tight around the other and we are spinning. The ice should look like tiny and tight circles. But, if we are not centered, we will travel. A lot of us are off center and we are travelling, and some don't even know it. I don't mean traveling like the airplane "Hey! I am going to Disney" travel. I mean the kind of travel that can stop God's goodness in our lives. The kind of travel that can lead us into shark infested waters. The kind of travel that is leading us to very dangerous demonic territories. The kind of travel that can hurt us. Finding our center can take time. It is a process. So, we need to be patient. But we need to be diligent in not giving up!
