Does God come first in your life?


As busy moms, we tend to make excuses for not having time to spend in the Word of God.  We say the kids get up to early, or they go to bed too late, or we have this event or that thing to do.  We must stop and ask ourselves one question:  Who is first in our lives?  As Christians, we need to spend time with the Lord on a daily basis.  We need to put him first in all we do and say.  God is not just there when we feel like going to him for things, he is there to have a real relationship with you.  How would you feel if your best friend only came to you when they needed something from you?  That person wouldn't have a very good relationship with you for long would they?

Our God is a jealous God and he deserves and demands that we put him above everything else.  He says we are not to have any other gods before him.  Those gods he is talking about is the idols in our lives.  Anything you put higher on your list of priorities (even good things like your family) are considered idols.

Let's put our Lord first, then we will see everything else fall into place!
